Rate deduction

@mistertoad I'm sorry, I didn't realize you play by email. I only played at the v2 website until recently. Just a couple of weeks ago I added the app on my google device, in order to play a certain friend who prefers that way. I find that there is a Resign option, accessible via the Menu (three horizontal lines at the bottom of the screen while the game table is visible). Does this match with anything you see while playing?

It does. I was remiss and have had to confess my sins below!

@mistertoad No, as of now points are only adjusted on resigning.

So if a player is clearly losing the game, and they do not wish to suffer a drop in their rating, all they need to do is leave the game without resigning? This would seem to reward bad behaviour!

@mistertoad No, they still lose the game and the points if they quit (by leaving or going offline etc). This just happened to me now in fact. My opponent was losing heavily and got abusive. Soon after it told me they'd gone offline and I got the win. I assume they just closed the tab mid-game out of frustration.

@mistertoad excellent.

@sakamvari I see you discussing resigning as if quit and resign are 2 different things To real fans of this game it is one and same except if someone resigns points are immediate. But, when people quit or resign at start is no matter they make opponent sit there and wait . It is inconsiderate and it is done because they assume they will lose, so easier to bail when no penalty, just not fair to punish the person staying because someone wants to leave. If there was a penalty my guess is they would stay
