I recently timed out on my first Bulldog game. So, it was decided that I could not play since I timed out the first round. However, when I decided I might try it again and enter a smaller tournament, I was told that I could not as I had a 100% timeout ratio. To me, this doesn't seem right. It's like saying that during your first chess tournament, you lose against someone else on time. So you go to the next tournament. But it says you cannot join because your first game was a timeout. 100% ratio. Well, now you play another normal game. But the tournament is done.
I think that timeout should not start to be taken for stats until eh fourth game, so they can see whether it is really someone who timeouts often or it was just one case. You can't judge that off one game.
