There is a lad called Timeex User 87575
graded 1433 who has won 28.74% of his games by crushing skulls.

And CrushingKing's User 128336 who sounds like he is the
King of Skull Crushers has lost 34.25% of his games by getting his
skull crushed.

This is fun 🙂

Initially I was in suppport of Mr Sham (and I suppose still am) but I must say that someone who has 25% of their wins by timeout must be looking for them!!

Still ... rules are rules ... Mr Sham is just using them to his advantage and I have no sympathy for his victims.
That is not the only way to win by timeout- sometimes players who are losing become poor sports, and just let the game time out rather than resign.

I have a theory (tangently made by Greenpawn34 on a different subject) that people are generally more rude and less concerned about social sanction when they operate under a pseudonym instead of their real names. All the same, I consider that the creative and humorous side of pseudonyms make them worthwhile in spite of the negative parts.

Guy I skulled had this on his homepage profile:

So I clicked on the skull and got a snively whiney insulting message from him about what a bad sport I was.

What a world!
I skulled someone the other day. I got skulled a few times myself so its just deserts.

All you have to do is sign up for the fast tournaments. I got something like 10 timeouts in a 1/0 group tourney. You don't necessarily have to be looking for them.

Yeah I just play 1/0 games and they pop up all the time, hardly skulking about looking for them to appear.

Strange. I'd think that a player entering only 1 & 0 tourns would get a rating over the p1200 start point even if he only won by timeout.

Perhaps they should start a clan or a club and call themselves the Headhunters.
