Subject: vacation days
Modified by rabbitoid (30. December 2008, 13:52:48)
by the way: I have this opponent who sets vacation days for next year, out of his stock from this year. Then, come Jan 1st, he can add to them.

This is surely not the way this is intended to work. why, in a couple of years he can set 365 off days! Now, if I could figure out the way to make this gimmick work for me on my job -

Why this guy ever paid for a black rook, if he goes this far to find loopholes in order not to move in games, is beyond me.

rabbitoid: No. If someone sets vacation days for the next year, the counter will be properly deducted.

rabbitoid: all he has to do is what the other person does on here........buy another years member ship, and you can go months without even moving....he does this when he is losing a game, just to make it difficult for other people in tournaments..

Bernice: that will have to mean he has to buy another year of membership every 7 weeks (35 days + 7 weekends) .. i dont think anyone will do this just to prolong a game

Hrqls: There are a couple players (or at least one, that many know about) who has had at least 90 (possibly 120!) vacation days in 2008 because of doing this. Not fair at all to the other players in any tournaments they are holding up.

rod03801: yes and it is unfortunate that something can't be done about it as well.....a bad loop in the system it is.......
and the person you are talking about is paid up to 2014, surely that indicates he is rorting the system when it comes to moves, and it was only a couple days ago he was whingeing and whining about not being able to get another paid up year..........
