 Chess variants (10x8)

Sam has closed his piano and gone to bed ... now we can talk about the real stuff of life ... love, liberty and games such as
Janus, Capablanca Random, Embassy Chess & the odd mention of other 10x8 variants is welcome too


For posting:
- invitations to games (you can also use the New Game menu or for particular games: Janus; Capablanca Random; or Embassy)
- information about upcoming tournaments
- disussion of games (please limit this to completed games or discussion on how a game has arrived at a certain position
... speculation on who has an advantage or the benefits of potential moves is not permitted while that particular game is in progress)
- links to interesting related sites (non-promotional)

only two games are running.It seems,that nobody wants to resign,although both positions are totally lost (and they move only one time in the week :()
It is not possible to estimate both games, therewith we others can start the second round?

Have you wrote to the people involved? They may not realise they are holding things up, and would gladly resign if this was mentioned to them. I doubt I'd realise if it were me holding things up!

Harley, I cannot ask players to resign her games (would be rude). They can see it,if they look in the tournement tableau,in which 100 players are ready.One of them is a pawn,he seems to be only one time per week online. No,estimating the games would be the best.It is a regular technique in correspondence chess, if the games take a too long time.

Well maybe not ask them directly to resign! But if I was in a tournament and was holding it up, I would never know. I'd appreciate a message asking me to hurry it along a bit if anyone was concerned, becasue I just don't look at tournaments I'm in.
I had a look at the tournament in question, and I know that at least one of the players is extremely pleasant and friendly when asked to make a few more moves to help a tournament along.

I've never heard of estimating a game, but if its the tournament creator finishing games on their behalf - I think it would be more polite to send a short message to the players first. Once they realise they are holding people up, they may make an effort to finish the games.

Estimating is usual only if the time runs out of the ordinary.
But perhaps you are right and I will do this,after waiting a little bit.

interresting situations, the two sections are not in the same state:
in section 6, only a miracle (or a massive australian network breakdown... ) can prevent black from winning; but miracles are not uncommon... and the outcome of this game can modify the standing in this section.

in section 7 the situuation is different. one player has a significant advantage, but the game can still take a LONG time to finish. however, the outcome will have no impact on the section. in that case fencer can be asked to declare a winner to the section, and advance the tournament to round 2.

:)@ rabbitoid,if the player in section 6 does not resign the game can take a long time too.
And in section 7,I think this is the typical case for estimation.

Point taken, I will escalate my play in this game as far as possible ... and thanks rabbit ... you obviously know my true abilities, something you have exploited already a few times LOL :)
