speachless: It is my opinion that the clock on a site like this serves as a means to prevent abuse and mischief by players with no spirit of sportsmanship. The main goal is to provide the most entertaining way to spend your time by playing games. The rules exist to provide this and exceptions to the rules are always welcome by everyone in the spirit of enjoying the games. When a player like you, which has so many games at a high level of quality, interest and entertainment gets into such a rare situation as this one, I think it is imperative for the administrator to provide the means to secure the entertainment of all players involved. Very few players are in this for vain points and ratings. I think that I speak for the vast majority when I say that, in this specific occurrence, Fencer should had suspended the timer globally for a day, so that the entertainment of the players involved in these games would be preserved, rather than giving the excuse of "fairness" for not doing so. If a player had a problem with that, he/she could request the time forfeit specifically for his/her games and be done with it.
I, for one, am really disappointed for winning our game on time like this. Being indifferent is one thing, being in such a situation and requesting an exception is another.

I am not saying it is the end of the world or anything, I just feel that it is unacceptable to miss the spirit of the rules in favor of the letter of them.
