I won a game today on time, and my rating did not increase...this also happened about a week ago...anyone else having this happen to them?
Phelon
unrated game? opponent rated too low?
dlordmagic
How many moves were made? If its fewer than 3 or 4 the rating wont change.
bastiaan
I think the games were under 3 moves (?) or something like that. If there aren't enough moves made, the game counts as aborted, no rating will be affected.
LucenaTDB
If the game lasts less than four moves then the game will not change rating.
Thanks for the answers...it was too few moves...it was rated (a league match)

WRong. I just resigned a game where I'd made 3 moves, my opponent 2. I resigned thinking it would not effect my rating, but it did. I lost 34 points. I resigned because Aniko has about a 1000 games going and takes days for EVERY move.
Thats because you resigned. A loss on time is a different story, at least until the abort option dissappears.
littleman
NO difference when its a loss its a loss time or resign its the same score effect. The person lost points because it would have been at least 4 moves made before they chose to resign....
Ray_Brooks
Hhhhmm then he got ripped off and should be given the points back!
TadDude
Appears there was an unannounced change in policy.
See post #7 of this forum topic. "All games that you resign count against your rating once the game starts, regardless of length.
