Does that mean the three recent games in which he beat me become victories for me? And the current game in which he was beating me I guess I will win on a time out?

Originally posted by ParShooterSorry, no. You will get any skull wins, but he has 485 games in progress, so as his rating drops with the time-outs that will start to pile up the opponents with the longest time-outs (14/14, etc) aren't going to get much. 😠

Originally posted by SmiffyAs I understand it this doesn't happen immediately. There is a period in which you can claim time outs and gain points but I think you will find this doesn't happen immediately and it might be done automatically for you. It is some time since I last won a game from a banned player but I'm sure I got some rating points.
when people got banned normally there was no rating points to collect so im not sure if you will get any.

Am I reading Clivestraddle's profile right? In a little over 5 months he finished 1100+ games (average finished 7+ games per day???) and has 485 games in progress. Even with his trusty engine how did he find time to make all those moves? I can barely keep up with my 20 3/7 games. 😛

I cannot see the profile of mqbal but the other looked like high rated players. Hardly the type the 1200 guy was scared of last week.

Subject BANNINGS; RE "clivestrsddle" , Surely if he has beaten me 5 times ( as he has) and taken 2,3 or 4 points each time, I should be reimbursed and given those points back! Also as I'm currently involved in 3 other games at this moment with him and I have to wait until the skull appears to claim the wins (which I rather not claim) is totally unjust as with the different timebank it would become a lottery as the ratings came down ETC. I'm sure no honourable player would like to gain or lose from a cheat! Maybe it would be hard work for RHP but surely all his games and affected ratings should be expunged from the site.😠
