Sorry, it's not my intention to come off as PA. The two previous responses from Jellby came over as sarcastic and passive aggressive.Grimwold wrote: ↑23 May 2024, 14:07 Passive agressive answer won't help you rallying people on your cause.
Your 'issues' are just not issues at all.
You are playing agaisnt someone who respect the rules about time limit and you are not happy about it.
And you blame this on the number of games he is playing despite this having no relation with in game clocks.
Your only point is that you won't do that, so he shouldn't. Which, I'm sorry to say, no one will find it valid.
Again, nothing prevent you to start other games, and set shorter timers. You can also give your opponent a red thumb if you really dislike playing against him because of that.
Whether you agree with them or not, I'm entitled to my gripes, just as I am allowed to ask questions. It doesn't make them any less valid & we don't have to agree. It is possible for someone to be within the rules and for something to negatively affect other people at the same time. Both these things can be true at the same time.
Of course there's no problem with someone using their allocated play time. I'm fairly sure it's a small minority but there are players who manipulate BGA rules to their own advantage. Intentionally running the clock down in an attempt to frustrate and put off other players is one of them. It's been posted about many times.
Also, I'm not sure how many people IRL would tolerate someone returning every 4th day to play a turn? For one, my partner would have a lot of questions.... who is that in the kitchen? Why are they here? How did they get in? When can we eat at the table again?
