No rematch for quick games in 30s chess960 • page 1/1 • Lichess Feedback • lichess.org

Running into this issue quite often. Knight moves up the board and mates in 3, because I'm premoving or oppontent is premoving obviously due to time constraints. No rematch available! This is very annoying.

Could you tweak the algorithm to make it 2 games in a row?

There is an algorithm for that. It's called creating a tournament with 2 games.

I don't think I explained the problem good enough, after a short game , 3-4 moves their is no rematch option only new opponent. This is annoying in fast chess960 games (30 seconds) because quick mates happen somewhat frequently with knights. Sometimes after playing 30 or 40 games with same opponent, one quick game ends the ability to hit the rematch button and manual match request is only option which is annoying. Understand better?

Thanks for helping me understand.

Sorry, I don't think there is a good way to tell the difference between a player sandbagging versus a player accidentally losing. Tweaking this seems like it would both break the rating system and result in players getting banned more often.
