Wow! Never, ever, ever, ever.. heard of this being discussed.

This.^  But for what it's worth, I may or may not accept a rematch depending on my mood.  If I don't and I end up getting called names--well, sticks and stones--calling me names won't make me feel bad for not having accepted.

Do you ever play ,you seem to be on forum all the time talking well i wont say a bad word as it will upset little minds.

Of course I play.  I didn't join this site just to participate in the forums. That being said, if you want to say a bad word, go right ahead.  I assure you, my little mind won't be upset.  As a matter of fact, it's likely heard more bad words than you can imagine.  How about this, give me a day or two and I'll come up with some new ones just for you.  Feel free to use them whenever you want.

I'm still waiting to see a note on someone's profile to the effect of "Always plays black".

It's always funny to see the total ignorance of people who write that someone always plays white.  Then I look at the person's profile and astonishingly they have 50/50 white/black.  Funny that.

In Bullet chess I win 59% with white and 58% with black.  I think I can live with a 1% disparity and won't cry the next time someone plays one game with white then "runs", which would be quite hard anyway since I never lower myself to grovelling for a rematch in the first place.

Don't know who you're referring to, me or Kaynight, but to my recollection, you and I have never played a match.

Hello, this is a topic that I personally do not know what to feel about. I wonder if you have a responsibility to accept rematch offers when playing live chess, or I guess a better way of putting it, is if it is custom to do so. My guess would be that you should always accept a rematch offer considering all the "runner" insult comments you get if you decline a rematch. But it would be interesting to know other peoples input on this topic. I usually accept rematch offers but sometimes you are in a hurry or for some other reason don't want to play against the same guy, or even just don't want to play another game.

That's bullet, not chess.

glamdring27

It's bullet chess, one of the two types menioned and the one people usually whine about not getting a rematch in.  Chess is defined by the pieces an the rules, the clock is irrelevant to whether something is chess or not in the same way that the distance is irrelevant to whether something is classed as running or swimming.

So you are a woman?

Kieseritzkys_Revenge

Nope.  At least... well.. I never really thought about it.  I could be transgender I suppose.  I've just never explored the possiblity.

najdorf96

Indeed. I would advise the OP to do whatever he feels is cool with himself. If he has the time to rematch (whether or not he had the White pieces), personally think it's a moral thing...what have you.

I just disagree with some others decrying, "one n done" (especially if either or had the White pieces) simply because if it were OTB people would of course accommodate a rematch. Not so. Not even then would anyone automatically grant a rematch unless specified in advance. Please those whiners, don't use that excuse.

Even as White, I win, I alone decide if I want to play as Black. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. But it's not an obligation. If I'm Black, and I lose big-time, I don't whine about it. I know I'll catch you next time.

Few topics are so exasperating and so funny at the same time.

1/ Someone posts "about the cowardice" of runners, thinking they are original...

2/ We all read and think "NOT AGAIN " !

3/ Kaynight expresses most of our exasperation...

4/ Poster gets exasperated with Kaynight...(and mixes up Kayak a lady with Kaynight a bloke)

5/ Amongst the exasperation and repetiveness these threads are funny and yet annoying as a humming fridge or leaking tap in the middle of the night...
