Subject: Re: Autovacation

Stopping players from entering a tournament based on the number of games they have going on is not a good idea. Some players have a 1000 or more games going but move relatively quickly. And this player does not have an extraordinary number of games. I think a better idea would be saying you can only take 10 vacation days or something during one game.

gambler104: What if you go on a 2 week vacation? Auto vacation is nice since often I can get access to the internet even if I am away so I don't need to book off my vacations on the site. It is more usefull for if life gets to busy to come online.

At one time, Fencer talked about a limit of 5 days for auto-vacation days to be taken (IN A ROW), and most seemed to like that idea - I'm not sure if that is still a planned feature or not.

That way if people need to take a vacation, they can schedule them for however long they need - but if an emergency comes up, the 5 days of auto-vacation (and 2 weekend days) should give someone up to a week to hopefully recover from the emergency to get on-line.

edited to add "in a row"

BIG BAD WOLF: I'll go along with the 5 day maximum, it would at least prevent people ignoring games for weeks on end.

Subject: Re: Autovacation

gambler104: i was thinking about that, re some players with over 1000 games, is there anyway that if games get very high for one player than they are limited to the amount of extra ones they can take on depending on how many moves they make
