Ladder games won within 1 turn.

[Chazar]

I wish that ladder games that are decided in 1 turn would not count at all.

I had accepted a 1vs1 ladder game, but unfortunately real life did not permit me to make my first move within the time limit. I logged in 14 minutes too late, but I still lost as many points as a full game.

Well, on the other hand, stupid behaviour ought to be punished.

[Chazar]

However, why did I loose the game on the very first turn anyway? As a gold member, I ought to have 3 stale turn before being expelled from the game, but here just one stale turn kicked me out. Why? Is that a bug?

(Of course, a stale turn on such a small map at such an early turn is a sure loss anyway.)

[LPhillips]

A missed starting turn is always a loss. This was previously an important feature for keeping idle/stale games from developing and hogging server space. Perhaps it ought to be disabled for Gold members.

You do have the option to turn on a system that will prevent you from timing out of turns in your premium feature area.

Stang! I forgot about that option, should have used it last week...
