Report history
Please modify this rule. I want to be able to resign when the game is lost, and not being obliged to play boring move until reach 50%.
Thank you.
It applies also to other games where the winner is clearly understood at low BGA progression (like HEX)
There is a related bug for many 2 player tournaments. Resignation in any tournament game is blocked for all games regardless of progression.
In real life, you wouldn't sit around and continue playing just to give your opponent more points while they're laughing in your face. There's zero reason to enable this kind of thing online.
I believe the thresholds can be toggled per game in order to say what counts as "50%". So don't set it to half the required captures. Maybe just set it to a reasonable number of moves, and if it can be adjusted to each board size even better.
