Getting More Vacation Time & More Playing Time Into His Clock ???

Sort:
Naakija

I have an Opponent, whose Vacation Is a "Neverending Story". Quite the contrary, it´s getting longer and longer all the time, I look @ the data ! 

I do not mind not getting a move from Him.

Still puzzling me a lot.

Recently I have started to take some notes of that game. Here they are :

As far as I do remember it right, I did get a move from Him at latest Early January 2013.

 

Any Scenarios, Folks ?  An Upgraded Membership ?  A Time Loop ?   Laughing

Chess.com will be going offline at 10:00 AM PST. We will be down for approximately 30 minutes.

mvio

??? you can ask staff chess com in this problem ,with these proofs !!!

Naakija

Maybe I should.     Undecided

otherdog_100

He uses a time machine!

Naakija

Got into a Time Loop ?!     Surprised

Zidankata

This is what irritates me in chess.com

Naakija

We'll be back up in no time!

Naakija

30 minutes ..... about 4 hours.     Surprised

tigergutt

i think you get some extra time if you go into vacation and go back. this have happened to me and i was wondering where those extra hours came from

Naakija

That I know they do add the 24-xhours to a game clock. But I am wondering here how the both Vacation Time & Clock Time can increase !?     Surprised

Cheeta2

I have no idea Lauri.. I wonder too..

Crazychessplaya

In the grand scheme of things, four hours is "no time."

ruutu

If someone is basic account so there is no automatic vacation. Some use all their thinking time and vacation too, so the game does not develop much although it might quite clear.

I am having the same issue... my opponent is playing in 184 games, many of which are tournaments, and it seems like we're on a 15 days-per-move time control, rather than a 3 day time control.

A few days ago, I started making notes on the game, which has been going on for months, because I wondered if I had been hallucinating these issues.  Here's what I have noted in the past few days:

1/28/2013 12:26 pm Opponent has 15 hours 15 min of vacation and 24 hours to make move #24
1/29/2013 11:01 pm Opponent has 1 day 6  hours of vacation time left, and 26 hours to make move #24
1/31/2013 10:09 am Opponent has 17 hours 45 minutes of vacation time left, and 26 hours to make move #24
1/31/2013 5:58 pm  9 hours 45 min of vacation time left, and 30 hours to make move #24

 

Perhaps the server is rolling dice to determine how much vacation time to subtract, and how much game time to add?
