Subject: Re: timeouts

happyjuggler0: I second that. Another possible formula would be something like:

Total number of games you can sign up for = (number of games you have completed in a normal fashion) minus (number of games you have lost on time) - of course with a reasonable minimum number that you could always sign up for in any event (this could be 1000, for example).

This way, you won't be able to sign up for thousands of games until you know what it's actually like to play all those games. And if you consistenty lose more than half of your games on time, you will never move above the minimum limit.

The (intended) beauty of this formula is that all membership types except rooks already have a maximum number of games they can play. This should make implementation reasonably simple.

(I apologize in advance for all the parentheses in this post. I hope it is still readable.)

pedestrian:1000 games at once? Good grief, that sounds absurd. I can barely keep context when playing 30... you must be a genius of the highest order.
