One thing I would not like Fencer to do is fix something in a hurry. No offence, Paulo, but I know from my programming experience that "simple" solutions tend to hide side effects which often prove worse than the thing they try to fix. Especially with delicate algorithms such as timeout calculation which are bound to have an effect on a large amount of the software.

This problem has been with us for a while and a couple of days or months, whatever it takes, won't make a difference.

rabbitoid: I never suggested it should be fixed in a hurry. I'm a programmer myself and know all about "simple things having big impacts"

That's one of the reasons why I'm stressing the fact that this doesn't change much over the current implementation - less changes means less things that could go wrong.

Anyway, I was just replying to the thread that came up about people abusing the current system. I've suggested this approach a few times in the past and nothing has been done yet. But I'm patient, I can wait even more days, months or years

Personally I don't care much about people abusing the vacation system against me - I already have a few opponents that drag their games (and come to think of it, I'm dragging some of my own lately).
