Fellows,

I just realized that Englishman has not played on any of his games, does anyone knows if he will?

Regards,

Miguel Angel

Hi sparck,

I'm glad that you had fun and I understand your frustration. I've contacted service support and there is no other way than to ask him as a favor to hurry up. Basically I set the time limit to be 14 days, as a way to help people like you that does not have account support to prevent loosing on time on difficult times like when we have an spike of workload, but in the strict sence, he is following the rules; as the time limit is properly used.

I would hate for you to withdraw as you are proudly our second place at this moment, but you have the option of doing it at anytime.

Thank you everyone for your patience and hope you are having a good time making new friends from all over the world; as I am.

Best Regards,

Miguel Angel

does anyone care anymore? I'm a free member and I'd like to play in a new tournament and Englishman is going to drag this on for years. Is there a way to abandon the tournment or get him kicked out? I enjoyed playing everyone else, but annoying tactics like his are low rent...

He seems to be using the full time allotment on every move.
