Why not do away with skulls and award the game as soon as time runs out
apart from vacations .
I take skulls as soon as I see one but have upset someone by doing this
You guys are always looking for new ways to spoil my fun! ðŸ˜
Just tell the person to "Chill" he/she agreed to the time in advance!
That usually ends it. 😉

If you're bothered by users getting on your case for using an available feature, don't use it.

The time limit is there so why not end it when time runs out

It's only the "open invites" and direct challenges where you have to end the game with a skull if one player stops playing.
Seems reasonable.
I wouldn't want league or clan matches held up just 'cos someone wasn't clicking skulls, but at the same time I might have a match where the time was not as important as actually finishing a game (with a friend for example) where an auto-timeout would be a pain.

If you want blood, click the skull. If someone complains, tell them 'too bad'.
It should remain an option, not be changed because someone feels bad when they click it.

Originally posted by orangutanI don't know about league or siege games, but clan games only time out after a couple of months or so. I think Russ introduced that to prevent that a clan challenge is left hanging forever if one pair of players has left the site, so that there's nobody there to claim the skull.

Personally I wouldn't mind if clan games would auto-timeout after two days like tournament games, but for friendly games I definitely wouldn't want an auto-timeout. I play some games in which the time controls are completely uninteresting to me, and I would definitely not click the skull because I enjoy the game and maybe the conversation we are having.
