I get so irritated with players who will not accept a resignation when they have nothing to gain by continuing to play.
It happens all the time but today I was really fired up. I tried to resign 2 points to a guy that had ZERO chance of getting 3. I was just trying to save us from an extra 12-15 rolls and he refused. I offered again and pointed out that I was offering 2 just in case he didn't know and he refused again.
He played over 8000 games so he should know the rules.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
