At the moment two people are grateful for the auto-vacation - panda and cariad.
Both were admitted to hospital recently - one in Greece, one in Wales. Neither knew they were going to be away for quite so long so didn't set vacation days. I don't know their passwords so I can't go into their accounts and set vacation days instead.
BUT - both will be back playing next week.
Problem is Klokan is not suffering from an emergency, he is playing 650 games and doesn't have time to play them. Timing out would be the sensible solution to this situation. And in future don't play so many games.
In fact emergencies won't happen very often and most of the time this will be used to extend the number of games you can play without timing out.
Most emergencies will probable take more then 1 day. I also think that having it unlimited is a little too much (up to 30 days + weekends and such for rooks). With a limit of 4 or 5, it will give about a week extra time - which I think would not be too much to ask for people in an emergency.
BBW - but a trial 2 month Knight membership will not "open" eyes to the real benefits to being a "Rook". What I am trying to say is that if someone gets chance to pay a little to try a 1 month, 2 month or 3 month Rook (without creating fellowships) - meaning they are able to play all tourneys and seeing all Discussion Boards, they are more likely to extend it for the 6 months Rook Filip wants, once they are "hooked". Those of us who have been here a while (and are Rooks and have extended membership or even taken Gold Rook) would agree that it is good value and the site/personal service is excellent.
But unless you are a Rook, and experienced the benefits.... you wouldnt know.....
A lot of people dont want to pay memberships on t'internet.... for 6 months minimum membership, whatever to small price (to some), but a taster of it may tempt them....
Yes.. I should have guessed.. men generally try to make women think something is larger or bigger than it really is.. for example with a road map.. they try to convince everyone that an inch is equal to a mile.. lol
A second round will start even if you do not have enough slots available.
So with a second round starting, it is possible to be over your game limit. (of course you would then not be able to start any new games until you are under the limit.)
- I totally agree - hence I got a Rook pretty much straight away after first logon. What I am trying to suggest is targetting those people who are sceptic about paying for membership to games sites, or those who dont want to pay for such a time period of 6 months. You could even make it a month for a few Euro's.
My betting is once they get a load of games going, get into see Fellowships and the chat board, they will have faith in the site and renew for the 6 months at full price. I also said it should be a one off offer for pawns only.
