Giving up in last turn/end game

Post by Keola-NL »

Why are people giving up just before the end of the game.... is there an advantage for them?

The winner takes full credit, so no advantage: they just save (very little) time

That's annoying in another games, too. I like to see the final scores. I had 3 games I knew I lost long before the end because of blocks, but I still try to get as many points as possible. Such giving up should take -1 from reputation. It would likely be rare then.

Luckily this happens to me very rarely, possibly because I've blocked everyone who does such things lol. But yeah especially in a game like this, conceding is very annoying.

Good suggestion. Giving up in the last turn is poor sportstmanship and definitely should be reflected in the reputation.

I'm also not sure if that has ever happened to me in this game, but it has happened to me in another games, and in at least one recent case, my opponent surely didn't mean anything bad, as we have played many games and chatted quite a lot. Conceding should only be allowed in non-points games, in which you win or you lose, and there's no 2nd place if there are more players.
