I currently have 2 games underway against the same opponent on a 24 hour per move format. Quite a few times this player's account has changed to vacation when he is about to run out of time. A couple of times this has affected the clock. One of the games had a few minutes left before vacation was set. When the opponent turned vacation off the timer jumped up and said he had 23 hours left. This happened with both the games. What is with that?
There is a minimum charge of 24 hours each time vacation is used. If a player returns before 24 hours is used, the remaining time is added to his turn.
