    Guys I think its unfair to put timeouts for a tourney. Look what happended to me i forgot to put my games on vacation. Lost 80 gmes and now i cant play any tournamnet. Pls can any one put a tourney with a timewout less than 25%. I think all should put timeousts less than 25%. What is the point of the timeout buissness anyway? if u loose on time u just loose.

    Some people do not want to waste their effort on wins on time. There are many other reasons.

    As a non-premium member, if you lost 80 games on time it seems it would have been difficult to set vacation.

    " You must have played the moves in all your games before going on vacation"

    Most tournaments have a cut-off of 10% timeouts. Sorry Cry

    This means...you've been a member for 9 months and played about 360 games.

    40 games per mobth.

    10% =80 therefore 800 games required.

    You'll be able to play normal tourneys (10%) in about 20 months time.
