2 questions. one.. how long does a game have to be for it to count against our scores?(i.e. 7 moves? 8?

and why do they implement that? if you get a quick win it doesnt count? whats up wit that

Good question. I was trying to find that out recently... I would have thought an absolute minimum of two moves?

well i just played a 3 move game and was too short, so maybe 4?
Avatar of danbunting
Four sounds reasonable? It's pretty hard to lose in less than that! I guess that the thinking behind it must be to ensure that only 'proper' wins (not on time) are included?

No, I think it should be three. Here is real OTB game I played with a 'proper' win (I was white):

Hmmm... does checkmate always count for score?
