Unfortunately at this time we do not have an official adjudication system. However, if you feel an opponent is intentionally delaying a lost game you can use the Help & Support link to send in an abuse report.
how does arbitration work?

Hey guys,
I hope that someone can look into [url=http://www.chess.com/echess/game.html?id=30694206]THIS[/url] game. It's a tournament match and the last one of the groupstage. My opponent is in a losing position and does not have a chance of winning anymore. He still doesn't give up and takes a VERY long time to make his moves, meaning that he's delaying the tournament for a couple of weeks already and that it takes a lot of days for him to even make ONE move.
Hope that the match can get decided by Chess.com, so we can proceed with the tournament.
See joe,

If he is playing according to the rules, how can you protest?
I heard that chess.com offers arbitration in extreme circumstances where an opponent is procrasenating, I was trying to explain it to another user but couldn't. anyone care to explain it to me so I can pass on the information?
