Does "re-sign" really work?

yes it does -- but why should it be necessary?

suppose a player had resigned
and now submits an entry,
isn't that sufficient to cancel the resignation?

Pat,

What is the effect of resign in the game ?
What is the difference between a player that stop posting and a player that resign ?

By the way, are they still a few player left in that game ? I thought as champagne that this game is far from ended...

I used it to let gsf know I wasn't playing that weekend. Besides, I'd just made something like three errors which greatly reduced my chances of winning.

By the way, are they still a few player left in [ronk ed: this] game ?

Perhaps that's why ::: resign ::: exists, to let other players know you've left the game.

and a player that resign ?

just this: if all resign, the game closes
( without waiting for the usual timeout )

Ok that's clear, and this can be very usefull if there are less than 4 players (idle 4 days+2 hours)...

the referee keeps a resignation count
if all but one of the active players resign then the game is over
to make it clear to all of the players a resigned player must explicitly re-sign
any entry made by a resigned player is penalized with resigned-entry
