out of time

Hi, Iam a new member still finding my feet and have just won a game through my opponent running out of time, i have issued a rematch with him as i feel this is only fair, the game had only just begun. I would like to improve my rating by winning, or have it adjusted honestly by a loss as i would have gained experience.

To avoid this in the future you can change your settings to not automatically win on time out.  Or some such thing, I've been meaning to do that myself actually.

Oh, right thanks. You live and learn as the saying goes.

I tend to have that setting on and only take the win on time if either a) the opponent has taken a week or more since running out of time to log on, or b) if it's in a tournament. I think if you're in a tournament and you let time run out it's fair game.

On a side note, all my mother's side is from Clydebank and I grew up down the road in Milngavie :D
