I.e., depending on the time control, there will be problems, with Winboard engines, that do not implement "Move Now". However, I have to admit, that I recently changed Yace to exactly the behaviour you are complaining about. The reason is, that when you resign without making a move, there is no way to give the opponent the joy of mating Yace. So I thought, that resigning while making a move, might be an advantage. But I will reconsider this, and probably change to resigning without making a move again. Regards, Dieter
