Random move before resigning a game • page 1/1 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

What's up with people making a quick random move in a clearly lost position, so they can resign the game before you've had time to make your next move. This is a pattern I encounter often in unrated games. It's like they percieve this as sort of their little Pyrrhic victory, at least in their heads. So childish.

Those players are no fun.

I like the ones who give away all their pieces when they get a lost position and allow me to under-promote all my pawns before delivering mate.
