It's all great,the only thing that I don't like is the fact that if someone disconnects during the game,it's not counted as a loss.
So everyone who's losing is going to disconnect.............

It does reduce their reliability rating though.

I dont know, just random words really.

Nah, apparently there is a stat saying how reliable you are., Ie if you drop 1 in 10 games, it will be 90%.

From the uChess FAQ (hastily written late last night)

"My opponent disconnected, but my rating did not reflect the win?
If your opponent disconnects from a game, you will win the game, but it will not be recorded. Your opponent will be awarded a disconnection - and their reliability rating will be adversely affected. If they disconnect from too many games, no one will want to play them anymore. Try to choose more reliable opponents in your next game."

Well, it could be written more elegantly, but you get the gist of it, right?

It surely does, 5 minute games gets the old brain cells working overtime. I would like to see a few of the "big guns" there. Especially in this tournament thingy that is being organised
