"Knowing when to resign"...

Ziryab

If forced, it is not a resignation.

We should feel sorry for this Peter he clearly doesn't understand how chess is played I think Peter should play checkers instead of chess

Still, five points!!!! On some endgames, you can have one pawn at the end of the board protected by his king; forking a king and a queen of an apposing color. Now whose winning?

How can it be white to move?

Has anyone addressed how "clock time" plays into the new rule that one has to resign when one is down a rook or more in material?  What if one is a rook down but the materially-stronger opponent is running out of time?

The problem is that white has to be an idiot to allow the position shown above by "Web Surfer Ultimate."  If such happens, White deserves to stalemate at best.

I made a thing to let you guy's solve. I was playing black. Try going in my footsteps and tell me my errors or missed oppourtunities please!

I totally agree with you buddy!Let us both fly down to the FIDE Headquarters and tell them about your revolutionary rule.On second thought,we probably shouldn't,Because laughing continuously can sometimes result in death.We wouldn't want the FIDE officilas to die now,would we?

I hate when that happens. It happened to my grandfather the other day; he died laughing about someone else's preposterous chess idea.

You should automatically lose the game should you ever be down more than five points for two full turns.

So if you sac your Queen for a mate in four... you automatically lose?

Really? Have you never known that people sacrifice more than a rook for checkmates more than 2 moves long?

Kasparov's opponents would have resigned because Kasparov would've made a big threat with which the opponent HAS to give up material, or lose the game.
