I click 'em with the quickness. Love seeing the things pop up so I can shoot them down. If I put out an open invite with a 1/0 time limit, don't take it if you can't commit to it. It's as simple as that. I will send 1 reminder, after that you're history. However, if an opponent contacts me and asks for more time for whatever reason, I'll be more then happy to oblige.

Originally posted by Very RustyI don't know my opponents personally so it's tough for me to feel compassion for them when I see the skull. I click skulls all the time. I don't ever consider or speculate as to my opponent's circumstances, whatever they may be.
Actually there are lots of excuses and some very good ones:
Such as a death in the family, Person being sick and in hospital, computer crash being among the top ones I have run into personally.
Should the game always come before the person in your opinion?
And, in the 1500+ games I've played, I have never had an opponent contact me to ask for more time. Not once.

I've never sent a reminder, do you have to wait a certain amount of time after sending one, or can you just send it and then click the skull one second later? That'd be even more fun I think.

I have had different people ask for more time. I am a chess pig I will admit, and usually have a heavy gameload. I feel that "have to click the skull" if it is a clan game because of the the 19 other people depending on me.
It is not that I don't click the skull, all one needs do is look at my profile.
I don't mind at all clicking it when it is a lost game for my opponent anyway, or someone who makes a habit of letting their time run out.
