this is a VERY funny post :) if i read it right it is a tongue-in-cheek mockery of those who get so irritated about other people not resigning :) (little chess partner is the computer ;)

How rude and unsportsmanlike to ask someone to resign! Besides, I think "Little ChessPartner" is a computer program and your post is probably intended to be a joke.

Eric, I propose we add 'resignation etiquette' to 'politics' & 'religion' on the list of topics that will get a thread locked with extreme prejudice (unless, of course, it's funny). ;-)
This topic made me lol.
All of you who think that Little ChessPartner is anything other than the site's very own computer player are making this even more funny. Damn, I feel so evil.
you can get mate in 1 i think
I was playing little chess partner, and although we only had our kins, we could stilll go on for ever

I think this is over looked I believe Black(added later: That is if its black to move) have won himself/herself or itself if its a software a stalemate since the King can not move and he is not checked(Draw)! and that is a bit shame Four Queens to checkmate?? I do not mean to be bad but you just need to checkmate someone not ask him/her to resign!! I would be looking for a stalemate if I know I can not win! True! Better a stalemate than losing,no?

Dear Alabaster
I can understand your frustration but your lead over Black is only marginal. I have frequently lost games where I have had a better lead than this and you have also not considered Black's considerable potential for counterattack. Using the Irony Counter Gambit I once failed to press my advantage where I had nine queens and three rooks. If I had been Black I would probably have offered you a draw.
I have recently completed a game against an opponent who refused to resign. I was in a very strong position - see the diagram, in which I am playing as white.
I asked many times, but they refused to resign. In fact, they would not even reply to my request. Without any other option, I managed to checkmate them after another 16 moves. I am writing this post so that other members will know to avoid this person and their unsporting behaviour. Their name is "Little ChessPartner". What was even worse, unbelievably, was that they refused to congratulate me on my victory. Shame on you.
