I have noticed recently an increase in slow play..Is there a ruling on players who exceed the time limit turn after turn..I played a guy a few days ago who was averaging 7 minutes a turn...
I would like to propose that players exceeding the turn limit after the first turn in either half have immediately to End their turn.
If they do not do this i propose that they then have to concede the match. |

he's right in a way, people spending 4 to 6 minutes EVERY turn, you should at least have the "right" to cancel the game. |

lol @nordmark. a bit naive grum. only a few coaches would admit theyre slow even if they are. because it is a criterion if u play some guy or not.
but i guess there is no way to rule such cases unfortunately  |

@Grum
not playing them again has nothing to do with the current game, does it ? correct me if i'm wrong here, but i'm sure it hasn't.
as for asking them: first it would be tedious, and then, as others pointed out, there's no way someone tells you "i take 4 minutes to move my two stunties remaining on the field". |

Ive noticed an increase in whiners lately. Surely there is some rule, or some rule should be put in place to deal with such people. |

Perhaps they are just "planning" their whole turn in one go?!? And then di it all. Such things takes time and you must draw your carefull plan on a piece of paper at first to see if it´s actually going to work.
No but seriously. There can be many reasins why a person plays slow. One of my friends can only focus on one thing at a time wich means that if there is music in the room when we play I win because he is listening to the music and I am playing BB
You can´t just say to someone: "Concede, you play too slow". |

yea but is the limit? if your loosing you will wanna cancel the game and u can blame it on his slowness he might have a slow connection or his wife might be giving birth or he might of dropped a glass and needs to clean it up, so im saying that its inaccurate and will be abused so its a bad idea |
