Probably these tournaments are "no vacation" tournaments.
Vacation Time for online chess
Sort:
oh ok thanks
although chess.com should remind me that they are non-vacation tournaments.
Hi everyone,
I am on vacation and will not be on chess.com as much (every few days) so I put my status on vacation so I wouldn't run out of time as I usually play games where the time control is 24hrs per day. I just went on, and at least five of my games (online tournament) were lost because it said I ran out of time. I don't really care about my online chess games (I am at a tournament right now and am spending my time preparing), so I withdrew half of my tournaments. Anyway, I am just saying that even though I was on vacation time, some of my games (like 5) were still going on, and I lost because of it.
Thanks,
