Detailed description
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
When you have clearly lost a tournament match, you are forced to play out the rest of the game. There are two justifications for this:
1. The winner might get more than 1 point.
2. The winner wants the experience of playing out their win in full.
In the case of certain games like Chess, where you can score at most 1 point, the first point doesn't apply.
In the case of Chess, there can't be very many people for whom the second point applies. It can be frustrating to have to play a Chess match to conclusion for both the winner and the loser, to the point where some would consider it rude not to resign.
However, even for games where it is fun to play out your win, I believe it is not worth the frustration experienced by the loser, and to force the loser to play til they are beaten into the dirt is quite a selfish way to approach board-gaming.
As such, it should be possible to concede tournament matches wherever a win would only grant 1 point.• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened
