I woke up this morning to find that I was "on vacation". I have never gone on vacation so I have no idea how my account went into that status. Anyways, I go to my settings and I see that the checkbox for going on vacation is checked so I uncheck it. Then I start replying in some games where it was my turn. Suddenly I notice there's a game where I can't move my piece, I look up and I see... "I am on vacation"... What?? So I go to "My Online Chess" and there it is. I am on vacation again!!

Is this happening to anyone else or is it just me? 

just you maybe you didnt save the changes??

They're after you....they realise that you are playing too many matches and monopolising the system. Watch out for your on-line bank accounts!

 Oh Boy

:) 

this prevents you from losing on time in some of your games that were low on time. there may be a bug, however, that we are looking into.

that happened to me too JOE83 if I woulda timed out wouldnt matter I been playing the same guy for 3 weeks, he's goes on vaca after every move

we have added a link to the game that is almost out of time in the email you receive. let me know if there is still any odd behavior...

Joel, I was actually wondering if you were ever coming back!!   It's too bad you didn't know you were on vacation, you could have had a really great trip!
