Chess BigFooty Chess Club v Orbis Centre Club (FINAL SCORE: BIGFOOTY WIN 13-11)

[RalfM]

My opponent has gone on vacation the move after I took his queen.

I'm thinking that this is a case for Chipmunk having a chat with oil4369, the organiser from their side at https://www.chess.com/member/oil4369 ... That's pretty bad behaviour.

Yeah happy to have a word. I doubt it will do anything but at least it will make their captain aware that this is happening.

He appears to be playing all of his other games and just not mine now.

 

[Jaymin]

Have reported him for vacation abuse and also asked chess.com to review the games. Will see what happens.

Thanks for that. For transparency I didn’t get to messaging oli. He hasn’t been online for 3 weeks (and lost 20 games on time!), but even so I’ll message him now about his player’s behaviour.

Looks like Santoz has their game in the bag, and Jaymin should be able to close their two at this stage, after the vacation (*sigh*) but I don't think I'll get my second game, not even to a draw... It's going to be down to Kennedy Parker getting at least one draw by the looks of it! What an excellent competition!

Can't believe they haven't done the noble thing and resigned already.

They will probably call you a cheat and then go on vacation for a month.

Might be hoping for a stalemate trap? Not much chance of that...

 

[Kennedy Parker]

This Orbis club has appalling sportsmanship

Lost my second game, but it was an epic battle and left us 1 each. Reviewing the analysis showed I had some chances that were way above my pay-grade :-D

 

[Jaymin]

Just an update, my opponent started 7 new games but didn’t have the time to make a move in our 2 games...

 

[pickler_mz]

If you think this is slow, I came across a tournament that has been running since 2011. It's now down to the final game.

 

[Jaymin]

Looks like he has come off vacation leave, 64 minutes left. Has just played a blitz game.

 

[Jaymin]

Back on vacation leave with 31 minutes left...

Good news is that he only has 26 days of leave left.

Did chess.com get back to you on the report?

I got no response from their Captain.

 

[pickler_mz]

If we are looking for another match, I think the Kingdom of the Picts would make good opposition. We'd be fairly evenly matched, and they aren't time wasters. But I'd have to sit it out as I am in both clubs.

I think that's a good idea - this game has been going on for a month and I can tag in some of our new Chess AFL players as well. If it was agreeable to both sides I am happy for you to join whichever side has fewer players, in case there's an imbalance in numbers. Shall I approach your admin?

Yes, I'll let him know.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

We're almost there team. Offered a draw for both my games and it's been accepted lol.

Now it's just a matter of Jaymin converting being a queen up against the time waster in 3 weeks time.

Did the captain ever respond Chipmunk?

6 days of vacation time left.

No, and he hasn't been seen on chess.com for 2 months.

I think we have a dud team here.
