Royce Simpson 🇺🇲🇺🇦What's your take on "offering to concede a wargame" in a recreational setting? Is that good or bad form when someone offers to concede? I tend to get annoyed if someone offers to concede in a wargame if there's even a remote chance they could pull off a win. I feel like the offer of concession is a cheap way to try to end the game without facing defeat on the game's terms and therefore rob the opponent of a legit win. Granted, in any kind of competitive setting, a win is a win... I'm talking strictly recreational.
Antisanti@gitano On a more serious note, there are a number of reasons why a player concedes before reaching a proper ending. Maybe the player is not having a good day, or we are playing a long game and it feels like a chore. What it’s relevant for me is the reason why the person is conceding, not the act itself.
Maybe I’d feel annoyed if it was a case of bad faith. As you say, if conceding was just an easy escape. In any case it would just be a little nuisance at worst.
