Resignation Question

Resignation Question

General

Vote Up
Vote Down

After I posted a move I realized I'd left my Queen dangling leaving to a lost game.
In my other game ( we're playing two )I messaged my opponent that I would resign the first game saying I blew it.
Think he did not see the capture of the Queen for he moved his rook away alowing me to sail off to safety.
I now want to continue.
Question is, is it legal, unethical to play on?
Thanks

Ask them if they made a thoughtless move first... you said you would resign so they moved early... perhaps not making their best move.

he didn't take your queen, the expected move you would have resigned upon. Keep playing

I didn't want your damn queen. I have a forced mate in 47 moves. If you can't see it, that's your problem. 😠

I think you should resign all your games after 4 moves. BTW how's about a pair 1 as black 1 as white😉

War is war. Write a chess novel about how you defeat your opponents using diversionary tactics. Or keep your word, makes no difference to me.

War is war was Bowmann's masterpiece.
Play on and crush the guy, that's what Chuck Norris would do. He would give himself a roundhouse kick for thinking about resigning. 😕
