No acceptance from Sardegna and the match no longer appears in the TFS (Dundee) challenges sent box.
Message received : the challenge is no longer available (from Sardegna). Does this mean that they have declined? If so, may be claim the win?
Hi @MunroBagger, challenges disappear in some time (4-5 days, I am not sure), so let's wait the official start date. You do not need to send an additional challenge. If your opponent has not send a challenge you will get the win.
Sardegna has now issued a challenge have ignored my challenge of nearly two weeks ago the day before the match is due to start. This gives insufficient time to realistically fill the roster. I feel that at best this is bad sportsmanship by our opponents. My position is to ignore the challenge given the circumstances but still claim the win. I believe their admin to fall foul of chess.com fair play rules and will be reporting them to chess.com seeking the individual if not the team to be barred.
Hi @MunroBagger, according to the rules, if registration on a game had started less than a week before the official start date, both of the teams have one more week to register enough players. In this case Dundee and Sardegna will have time till July 2nd. So please accept the created challenge.
I have just noticed there is configured 1+ player instead of 5+. Please recreate the challenge with the right attributes and post it here.
sorry so much. I have many problems at this time. have you tried to contact the other admin Sardinia? sorry again
New challenge received from Sardegna not in the correct format. I will decline. I have posted a new challenge.
