It’s easy to go overtime in Spite and Malice when you get a lucky run of cards, even when you try your hardest to be respectful of the clock. I recently played a game where that was the case, and another player kept trying to kick me out of the game after I went 2 seconds over the clock, because I was winning.
My screen was then flooded with errors saying I had to make a move, to the point that I couldn’t even see my hand. I was eventually kicked out by this player and lost 10 reputation points.
It was mean-spirited. They were upset that I was winning and found a way to make sure I wouldn’t. I wish there was a way to avoid this, especially in games where you can easily go slightly over the clock if you’re given a good run of cards. It feels really unfair to lose the game and reputation points over something like that.
