I want to participate in some tournaments,however the system says:
You must have a timeout ratio lower than 10% to play in this tournament.
Please tell me how to solve this problem.Thanks a lot!

Just keep playing games, and DON'T lose on time.Your timeout percentage is what % of your games to time out on. If you timed out on 9 games, and played 69, that is 14% timeouts, and thus you cannot play in that tournament. Now, say you have still timed out on 9 games, but have played twice as many games. Then you have played 138 games. That would leave you timeout % at 7%, and you could play. :)
Simply put, play games, and don't lose on time.

Something else to watch. I lost one game on time because I played a 1 day move. I wasn't able to get back to the game due to family issue and lost on time. So I avoid games on 1 day move.
Also, by becoming a premium member, vacation time helps to prevent you from losing on time.
Thanks for your suggestion! I'll be care in later games:)
If possible I may purchase to be a premium member in later!
