Have you encounter players who take a lucky win and run away ignoring rematch? Of course, very annoying.
My idea is to make a new button - "Create a match".
So, it will be possible to define a minimum number of games when you create a match or challenge somebody.
For example: create a match, rated, 1+0, 10 games. As soon as your opponent accept these conditions, you both have to play at least 10 games. If he refuse to play all 10 - he will be disqualified, and get losses for remaining games automatically.
I like this idea, but I disagree with:
> If he refuses to play all 10 - he will be disqualified, and get losses for remaining games automatically.
One loss is enough. If someone's connection suddenly dies and he stops playing, he would lose all other games and lose many rating points. And just counting one loss is probably already enough to be sure people don't just take your match for an easy win.
I have to agree with #2.
If someone wins one, I would think that they want to keep that rating. (At least I would!) They would also accept your rematch if they want to. (At least I would think so!)
I'll be the first to enable whatever filter option that blocks forcing rematches. I'm not the kind to stick with a stranger for over two games unless they play creative enough to impress me. (I know this speech is kind of harsh, but hey.)
Doble match would be enough
Quickcastle - for you double match would be enough. Thats fair, espesially when you play a variant like atomic, or horde bullet. It will ensure that your opponent will play hard part too. There are annoying users, who choose color in rated games, aborting the hard side, and playing only easier one.
Unihedron - you will never forced to play that way, I just propose to make a multi-games match as an option. So, users could choose the best way they like to play: hit and run, like you do, or fair long match, where you could study your opponent's style and find his weaknesses.
TheIceManV - good correction, I agree.
I mean ProgramFOX, not TheIceManV. (regarding disconnections).
Yes, I agree with the idea. It is so annoying when players do not play rematch with color reversed in atomic chess.
