Looks more like that person quit because of the family fork.
people who quit after you block their scholars mate
Sort:
Not just a fork but the royal fork (king and queen), worst kind of fork there is. I try to remember to guard my c pawn for that very reason, knights love to attack that square.

true, but ive also had so many peope resign because of failed scholars mate, where they quit once they realize they cant get it. not just because of a fork.

Yeah the scholars mate kind of dies once you get to the late 900s and finally 1000s but it’s not like it never happens.
I had one player try that on me and when I blocked them they resigned and I watched and he just would do it again in their next games.
All of my games with Nelson be like

1.e4 e5 2.Bc4 Nc6 3.Qh5 g6 4.Qf3 Nf6 5.d3 Nd4 6.Qe3 Nxc2+ {0-1}
I feel like this is the only reason I’ve managed to gain points the past few years. Is my these resignations and it’s so frustrating sometimes.
