Jason: but that'd costs them - all for what? a few games not to time out on the internet? wouldnt make sense for someone to abuse it like that I think.
Fencer: but if they extend by a year today, and they had nil vacation days, then get 30, but use 10 before Jan 1st, should they not start Jan 1st with 20? or is the fact they get reset to 30 again a bonus of comitting to an extra year of membership?
Jason: Well, it wasn't officially announced yet but if you extend your membership by another year, the vacation counter would be reset to the original value (30 for Brain Rooks, etc.) instead of waiting for the 1st January.
I have recently signed up and have been reading through the site. I cannot find rules info related to how things work. For example, I challenged someone to a game of extinction chessand they declined the game. So how do I get the best players to play me? Where can I find info related to those types of things? Can someone help me out with more info?
Thanks

rabbitoid: The increment is added only if you are below the limit and the final value cannot exceed the limit. For example, if you have 14 days and 18 hours left and make a move, it won't add a whole day but only 6 hours [to reach the limit of 15 days].
Fencer: I agree, but we have already played for 5 days, we have used up time, no? or does the counter reset itself each time an increment is added, until it reaches the max value?
I have created a fellowship named Who is God and what qualities does he have? and I hereby invite all of you to join it for discussions about God. No holy books are going to be used. We'll speak just from ourselves and based on our feelings, and of course logic. So, if you ar einterested, ask for an invite and I'll gladly invite you to it. I don't want to start sending invitations to everyone. If you are interested, feel free to join. We'll decide on what and where to start from, after a few have joined.
I may be a bit dim, but could someone please explain again the functionning of the Fischer clock?
Example: I have a game that started 5 days ago, with setting "Time: 7 days, Bonus: 1 day, Limit: 15 days, no days off". We are now at move 17, which means that the "time left" climbed slowly up to the 15 day limit, and that's where it is now, 5 days into the game: both players have 15 days "time left".
But is that the way it was supposed to be? if the max "time left" is 15, shouldn't it read now 15days minus the time we have been using so far?
i can't send messages either, and i just tried to make a move in a new game, no go! it seems like i can make moves in just about all of my games, but i'm not getting the win notice in my mailbox!
