I understand that if a player resigns a game before they make a move then that game does not affect their rating. Is that correct?

I'm interested in reducing the number of active games I'm playing, but my clans keep adding me to challenges. I've since removed myself from clan challenges in my settings, but I'd like to remove some of the new clan games as well. I can't delete a clan game, but I supose I can resign before it has started. My second question is - will this adversely affect my clan stats - will these resignations count as losses against the clan? I'm assuming yes, but wondered if someone can confirm this, cheers.

Go right ahead and resign them. Your clan leader clearly wasn't paying much attention if he kept loading you with games.

Seven of your 24 public games are clan challenges. How onerous can those be in the grand scheme of things?

It's just that I would prefer to devote time to my current games than new ones. I'll message my clan leader and get his opinion I guess.

you can ask your opponent if he/she wants to accept a draw in each game.

Maybe you can pay this clan leader a visit 🙂

I know him from the club. I might have seen him before in person but I can't rememeber.

Rahim, is it true that the ECC meets at 10840-107 ave? This is the new location or the old one?

Play your games out and then quit all your clans as you are obviously not team material.

I'll check and get back to you. I haven't been to the new place but that address seems wrong.

I recall the old one being 108 and 104 or 108 and 107 maybe.

I'll drop by one of these days. You live close by now?
