You know, sometimes I have to deliberate whether it would be fair to take a timeout or not if the game is still hanging in the balance.
Fortunately, some players make this choice very easy for me by posting in their profile that they will always take a timeout - it makes my life so much easier when I can turn the tables on those types and make the victor become the victim.
Do any others of you use this method as a tiebreak when you are not sure whether or not to time someone out?

Originally posted by WulebgrI won't click if they have a return date (that hasn't passed) or (generally) if it's a clan member of mine (when I was in a clan). I probably wouldn't time out my brother. I did time out both my sister and "step-sister" but that's because they only played a few moves and never returned.
always, that's why they're there
Well, it depends. Most of the time, I don't claim win immediately. For example, I didn't claim timeout win in a game where my opponent was 200 points higher and we had just started the game. I thought it just wasn't fair.
Another example, happening now, where I don't claim win right on: I'm being slaughtered, and the cute skull is on since 1pm, I couldn't time out immediately, come on, I'm dead and the game has just begun. Anyway, I sent the guy a message telling him I'll wait until 9pm.
I guess i'm too honest, eheh (or just a moron).

Originally posted by MandylionNot only do I click skulls immediately, I count down the days from the first move reminder that I see pop up, (and never send.) It doesn't matter to me if I am winning or losing, or how many moves have been made. It's one more game out of my way, with room for a new one.

Honesty is the best policy!
I NEVER send reminders either, I dont count down the days but I do however, ALWAYS click the skull unless the flag is raised and has a date of return

Originally posted by PalynkaWell, It depends, I wouldn't apply both. On one hand, since my main goal is to have some fun and learn in every game (I'll easily claim win against a lower rating player, but not against a higher rating player), I'd call myself just honest.
Why not both?
On the other hand, I'll be considered a moron by people whose interests are focused on their ratings.
Originally posted by MandylionSo it's both. I love being right. 😏
