Title: autobot play to thwart slow trolls
Post by: Someball on 15 July 2020, 12:58:56 AM
I have encountered too many players that slow right down at the end of games. I think they hope that I will lose interest and leave, and then they can claim the win. It is extremely frustrating because it works.

Or they just disconnect and I have to sit their for X minutes waiting to force them to resign.

I would love a feature to just let a bot take over. Even if the AI doesn't get improved at all, at least I would not have to take a loss in a game where I am clearly dominating. Instead of sitting there waiting to force resign, I could click "Autobot finish" and go on with my life.

Bonus points if I can come back later and check how the bot is doing.

Even better if the bot were to take a second or two playing each card so that it could me mistaken for a real person, albeit one that played badly.  Then the idiots that deliberately slow roll could waste their time trying to get a bot to resign!
