Is this a new feature? I know that the site assumes that you abandoned a game if you lose connection or close live chess browser for a certain amount of time, but I wasn't aware that you can also lose a game for simply staying idle.
Good to know.
Yet another issue with new flagging rules
Sort:
Guys, flagging people for not using half their time in an increment game tourney makes no sense. Neither does it for tourneys less than 3 minutes. Please modify the rules so that people who enjoy blitz tournaments are not unfairly flagged. Think about it... a person playing 1 minutes base with a 60 second inc plays her first move and and gets her time up to 2 minutes. Is it really fair that she loses after not moving for one minute? At the very least put a warning up before you flag someone, as the rule is non intuitive for about 99.99999% of chess players. Or call the game "half-chess" or something besides chess.
