Skeeter, aka timeout queen

has just been pushed off her number 1 spot here ...

So RHP has, yet again, a true leader 😉

why are all the cretins so concerned with someone winning within the rules, but turn a blind "i spy with my sexist" eye when someone wins outside the rules, lets face it the entire top 750 are better than me never mind the number one!

Why, how does Michelle do it? I just timed out an opponent who couldn't make his moves within a timeout of 7 days, timebank of 7 days. No vacation flag, no warning that he wouldn't be making moves, so I didn't provide him with the "courtesy" of reminding him to move before I timed him out. I have too many active games already, I'm not waiting around for someone who can't be bothered to move within the time control that was agreed upon.

Your way is fair enough to me my friend - I myself time people out if they are not moving within the time-limit.

Skeeter's way of timing people out is as follows (correct me Michelle If I'm wrong here)

If she is in a lost position, she makes a move every 6days 23 hours (if it's a 7day timeout). That way she can drag the game out for months - Once the opponent goes on holiday she moves straight away and hopes to time him or her out the second it is possible (if you don't believe it look at a few past games of her and see how many LOST positions she won due to time-outs)

That from my point of view is wrong as (a) vacation flags should be respected (as long as they are not abused) and (b) Where is the sportsmanship in doing that ???

I mean she starts (in the chess forum) a thread openly insulting players to resign against her (and even linking the games ID's)

- which is totatlly out of order if you ask me -

and on the other hand she pulls a trick like that ???

Let's face facts here, despite her probably being a very strong player, she ain't top 10 material (which I'm pretty sure will show shortly)

It's not interesting at all, all you can see is a game in which (out of the many) Skeeter is getting trashed by a real Top 20 player, let's just hope that Rui isn't planning any vacations... 😛

what i mean by interesting is the game is over and yet there is no resignation, Y ???

i read the thread earlier where there was a load of lost games for her opponents and she was abusing them and asking them why they were not resigning. the same question can be asked here.

is she waiting for ThePO to go on vacation ???

Ha. Bbarr's only got top spot because he's refusing to move in my game. Yea verily, Bennett, in this game I shall deny historical precedent until your blood soaks the board 😛!
