umm would this be allowed? -agentofchaos do not move Nxg8. hold off moving and ill try to win. i believe this is used in real bughouse games, correct?

5 moves per move = maximum stalling rate (in other words you can make five moves on your board before your teammate has to move)

Sound fair? I know that you cannot win that fast, but as a general rule for all bughouse games in this group. Also if two players on opposite boards and teams have a forced mate and announce it, the win goes to whoever's is faster.

 

Note that the stalling rule only applies if a person is deliberately stalling. If somebody has something going on their life that prevents them from logging onto chess.com for an extended period of time they should by no means be penalized for it.
