Eliminated games

The games are removed so no points are awarded plus or minus.
In Bart's case only one game from a quick win was declared void. In bobla45 case both games will be declared void
There was discussion about this month's ago. Can't find the thread. But for Russ to stop collusion a code was entered making all clan games under 8 moves void.
...[text shortened]... y be a small amount.
Not saying it's fair as usual we all suffer because of the idiots cheating

Have a look on the results page only the game in question is voided
If both games had been voided it would have been 5 points each not 11 and -11 as it is now

Only the quick game was voided the other game was not.
That is why after it ended 6-6 one game was removed resulting in plus11 points for one team and minus 11 points for the other team

In boblas 45 case both games will not count in the final tally.
There are some challenges where four or five games that end up not been counted

I think you need to put on some glasses.

What Roma has stated is 100% right and even a blind man could follow. There are 2 different challenges one where 1 game was void and the other where 2 games will be void.

What aren't you getting about this ???

I really hope you are joking.
No one can be that stupid

Seriously if you don't like the current system then don't play problem solved.

This is written on the bottom of the clan challenge page



'CHESS Troopers' wins.

11 points awarded to winner.

11 of 12 games scored for this challenge. Some games resulted in a draw in less than 8 moves.

This challenge result contributed to the 2017 challenge table.

So he has 1 voided game which under the rules as laid out mean he has lost 17 points

Now tell me what I have got wrong

Calm down
Deep breathe
Switch on brain

6 man challenge that should be 12 points.
Follow so far?
As we can see only 11points awarded to the winner Why???????

Because one game ended in under 8 moves so it's automatically declared void. Does not matter if it's a time out resignation or in this case a quick check mate. Unfortunately it does not count it's removed from the pages if history.
Now do you finally understand?

Now bobla45 his two games hes just won by time out will not count.

There was a huge thread on this month's ago. Decision was final by Russ fair or not.
I hope that clears things up

I can understand the move limitations on time outs, but I do not understand why a legitimate checkmate has been tossed out. This should be allowed and the challenge should be split 6-6.

There is no way this should be scored this way. I believe this is just a glitch in the system Russ installed.

Anyone knows the reason?

I appreciate games being eliminated because of non-movement but this game is a valid win.

I would suggest that you enter a problem ticket to the site admins.
This is an obvious error that is correctable.
I am sure it is just a system glitch in Russ' programming code.
The game was a legitimate checkmate, and that should have no bearing on number of moves.

I suspect 5 was a random number come up by admin - and think theres been a couple of games that have come up a cropper because of this. Maybe it can be altered to 3 moves? - so that the fools mate can count?

Further on this ...
Russ should be able to differentiate between a checkmate and a resigned game.

Just for clarity on any ticket opened.

This was put in because players resigned on the first move (McTayto) just as often as players let the timeout happen (Vespin).

A valid checkmate in the first 5 moves, as rare as they may be, should be valid.

That being said, if fool's mates start cropping up all over the place between 2 clans, then someone will investigate.

I suggested 5 moves in my suggestion in site ideas.
Russ could have selected another number if he had wanted.

Sorry crossed lines
I still say the original complaint shows what a load of rubbish the clan scoring is
If this is allowed to stand it will cost the clan 17 points
6 that they should have got plus the 11 that have been taken away

The game should definitely be counted six points to each side.
This was brought up in another thread months ago. But I can't find it sure Russ said 8 moves but it could have been 5 moves.
Resignation and time outs should be eliminated from the scoring system but not proper won games done quickly.
See what happens when those involved send feed back

Look at site announcements
Thread " clan challenge results change"

All wins 5 moves or less are now void.
