You see, the situation is similar, but this guy didn't even have a chance against Solmyr, so it was a real waste of time, which is what I wrote about.

Did he have any chance at all... - It's up to him to evaluate. For example, due to some major mistake of yours. Because you know how many people there are who shout, "Surrender, you have no chance, you're wasting time." Come and kill him - that's what the rules require. It's not the opponent who's wasting time - it's you who can't/isn't able to kill him quickly. And this guy enjoys just running around with his units, and maybe his goal was to last as long as possible and toughen up.
