Time Control / Abandoned Games / Force Win

[Rose Jansky]

@Aydin-Tanal Where is 'force to win' option? I can't find it.

[Paulo Pereira]

There isn't one as far as I can tell. The game automatically forces the loss for the inactive player after an overgenerous (imho) 14 days.

Hi, I have nudged a player a few times, can I end the game? If so, how? Thank you

@Jan-Fenn

far as i know, the game will eventually disappear on its own

[Jan Fenn]

@betterlate1 okay, now worries, thanks.

@Jan-Fenn Moved your question to the appropriate topic, see first message for answer

@lexulous I think that that is far too long a waiting time. A week maximum should be enough. I need to make changes to my settings and I cannot do this while my opponent leaves me hanging for days on end despite me sending nudges.

The original Scrabble game on Facebook gave players 24 hours to make their move, if you nudged your opponent after that and they did not respond within the next 24 hours, they forfeited the game which is preferable in my opinion.

[David Rofulowitz]

@Chloe-Kennedy I agree...I wish theyd cut it down to a week, and if your opponent hasn't made a move after nudging them, then they should forfeit the game. I can understand maybe letting a day or two go by without making a move, but to sit around for a week (as I'm doing now, actually!) or longer waiting for your opponent to make a move is ridiculous.

I stipulated ‘Fast Game’ and asked players to complete game. My opponent has not played for more than seven days. That is not a Fast Game

[betterlate1]

@Rosalind-Lindsay have never seen a fast email game. Good luck

[Pangloss]

@Rosalind-Lindsay Agreed
