Timing out and vacation

I was wondering if there might be any possibilty that if instead of timing out, that a player automatically goes on vacation if they have time available. I'm in a tournament and I missed logging in for two days and lost two games I was winning. That's just a bit frustrating.

ahh, I didn't know that was a perk. Anyways, I've thought of signing up, just haven't done it. I know it's not expensive, but I need to figure out if I'd make use of it. I enjoy chess, but it's not my only hobby.

yup.  it's a nice little feature.
