DjBlueman

Hello,

i'm going to be out for a 3 days vacation and i'm in a middle of a tourney that is defined as a 1-day-per-move and a "no vacation tournament".. in spite of that, is there any way to take a vacation time? is there any other solution? i'm in the final levels of the tourney and playing it for several months already.. i really don't wanna lose it in that point.

i'm out for the vacation in the next 24 hrs so need a quick answer pls (only now saw that this is a "no vacation tournament")

 

thx in advance,

DjBlueman.

I think premium members can have an auto timeout protection, but I am not exactly sure about that in your situation.

They do, but it does not protect you from timing out in a no-vacation tournament.

I'd suggest either finding a mobile solution, as suggested by TadDude, or making a point of checking in periodically at an internet cafe or your hotel lobby if they have it.

The mobile chess is a good solution.. there's a locked wlan connection in my hotel with a payment addition to get the pass and user and it should be cheaper then using the hotel's work-station computer with an internet access.

 

thx a lot for the help !!

have a nice weekend :)
