I am offering a No Vacation Tournament as a learning experience for those who think all tournaments should be no vacation. It is the kind of tournament where large fluctuations in ratings may occur due to timeout losses. https://www.chess.com/tournament/no-vacation-special Invitations are only being sent to people who register for tournaments and later complain a lot about someone on vacation holding up the tournament. I am not a fan of No Vacation tournaments.
