Sometimes they just get cocky.

    Never resign! What honourable player would deprive their foe of a well-earned mate? What of endgame practice?! Playing from a losing position is good for you.

    I realized that I don’t have a lot of experience playing without my queen, because I frequently resign.

    Let’s do the CBA.

    Keep playing:

    • Gain playing-from-a-losing-position XP
    • Gain end-game XP
    • Gain playing-without-a-queen XP
    • Allow your opponent the satisfaction of a mate
    • Bestow honour onto the name of your family

    Resign:

    • Save 1 minute of your time
    • Feel like a stupid pansy bitch

    Tough choice.
