@ BobeeFissure,

you can go on vacation as long as you have enough vacation time. In order to see how much vacation time you have, go to your online chess settings.

Why is it I cannot participate in a tournament? I get this msg:'You must have completed at least 5 "Online Chess" games to compete in this tournament.' I have completed 5 online games...

How much and how often can you take "vacation"?

That is just as bad as those with higher percentages who intentionally let the time lapse on their losing games.  Players should request for a postponement if they are truthfully unable to make a move.

Of the correspondence games that you've finished, less than 10 % (one tenth) of them ended with you losing by time.
