Hello, is there any formula or variable that limits the number of times the same person play against the computer ?

For example i would like to limit in 5 times, so if someone play 5 times in a row against this account then that person can’t accept my seeks (or use rematch) to play again against me until someone else has played with me or some time has passed.

is there any way to do that ?

Thanks.

Hi.

No, there’s not any variable you can set to keep a player from playing you over and over. You could +noplay the user for a while, but that is a manual process.

It depends on your interface you use with the computer. It may have a way of doing it. If you use winboard there are startup arguments. -zippyMaxGames 6 i think could be one limiting someone to no more than 6 games in a row. If someone else plays it resets.

You can try to set your autoaccept (am not to sure if that is the exact name) variable to 0 , ie :
set autoaccept 0
also try :
set open 0
