So this is Legal?

It only concernes me because I played a match against this guy last night and I had to wait sometimes for seemingly nothing. I rarely need to time someone out but I had to during this game, he had finnished his turns by 1-2 mins btw... I asked him about it but his response was meaningless.

Not saying he was playing to games last night aswell but It would explain the LONG PAUSES between the ending of his moves and the clicking of thew End Turn button....

Ofcourse if this is legal practice then we should all be doing it Smile

I know naming and shaming isn't allowed. But big pictures make it pretty clear. Don't break the rules or we will witch hunt you like a witch! Very Happy

Also, don't break the rules by starting a witch hunt.

Also, don't name and shame.

Also, stuff.

Edit: Also, follow the rules about not playing more than one game at a time.

I would say he is amazingly quick doing this. Him playing two games is quicker than most opponents playing 1 game. It is legal if the coaches playing have no problem with it. Seeing as he is a damn fun opponent, I have no problem with it.....

it's legal if opponent allows, right?
I always ask first the few times I have to play two at a time.

Rules presented to me said that time: "Don't play more than 1 game at a time, unless explicitly allowed by all other coaches involved."

Hrm ok well my bad then, I guess I was stil la bit pi**ed off about the unusual ammount of time I had to wait last night during a game, for simple things such as kicking a ball and ending a turn :/

This shouldn't be in the forums. If you have a problem see admins. Naming and shaming sucks twice as bad as playing double games.

Please delete the post if it is considered inapropriate.

My intention wasnt to name and shame. And if this is legal then nobody has been shamed Smile

My intention was to prove that this double game thing was happening (first time I have seen it tbh) and I question the legality of such practices..

Second the naming and shaming. But, from the Site Rules:

"Playing multiple games at once is not allowed unless you have explicit permission by all involved opponents."

Next time, PM the opponent to make him aware of this.

I have done it on more than one occasion. At my lowest point (read: most addicted) I may even have run 3 at once but I can't remember if that is true or not (funny how memories fade especially over periods of one's life where accomplishments are few and far between).

Re: whether is OK or not, I would say... it depends... he should make it clear to you that he is in 2 at once (I would always say to at least 1 of the opponents; the one I took 2nd) and really it shouldn't be done regularly. The majority of times I ended up playing 2 at once usually was because of conflicting scheduled game (I suck at scheduling games) or because I played somebody _horrendously_ slow (happygrue slow). Playing a game where my turns are 30s and the opponent's are 4 minutes, that sucks.

It seems pretty straight forward.

You should get both opponents to agree before starting the 2nd match. Otherwise don't do it. Simple.
