Dealing with people who stall

Not in the 'two-step stall' strategy type either. 

Does Goko have any mechanism for kicking people who are intentionally not responding to your Torturers for 20 minutes each time you play one? 

Would be ever so grateful to get the opponent I'm facing now a ban, a warning, or at the least a kick from the game.

I think they're planning on making this a feature in 2.0.  For the moment, the Salvager blacklist is the best way to stay away from them.

I've heard that, in the moment, rickrolling them in the chat works very well to make them quit.  I have yet to try this however.

How do I use / add to / check the blacklist?  Where is it?

You get automatically kicked after 5 or so minutes of inactivity. But as long as you do at least something every 5 minutes, there's nothing your opponent can do about it. You won't get banned or anything either. Your opponent will probably blacklist you, though.

It didn't work against tgorm when I tried it.

If you have the Salvager browser extension, you can find it in your Salvager user settings. If not, you should get it.

Oh, the greasemonkey script?  I haven't been able to get that to work.  Do I have to be using Chrome or Chromium (on Ubuntu) to use it?

The long-term solution is to get the extension Salvager and black-list your opponent: https://github.com/aiannacc/Goko-Salvager/wiki

You can always open up a new tab on your browser and start a new game in that tab while checking back every so often. That's what I do if someone intentionally stalls (and then blacklist them after the game).
