Teema: Re: change time for games to appear in red
mctrivia: It most certainly is a request board. There comes a time when the place is built and standing nice. Then we start redecorating. We have plenty of features now that should keep one from timing out. I don't need a rainbow of colors to see that a game is down to one hour left, 23 hours left, or 2 days 13 hours left. You guys need color coded lists, fine, request them. My list is fine just the way it is and I don't want a bunch of extraneous clutter and bells and whistles. I fail to see why some dilligence on your part can't keep the games from timing out. Plus there's vacation time that us paying members are given a generous amount of.

I hate to time out my games. A game of Dark Chess is ruined if it times out. There's no way to undo it once the position is shown. A bad game is not too bad of a thing to time out win or lose, but a good game is. Now my job takes me away from playing here and my vacations days have dwindled. As far I know I have yet to lose a game on time out except for one that didn't allow vacations. As long as I have this job I won't join games or tournaments that work that way. Some people can be bad sports when losing, but even if I'm losing a game I don't want my opponent cheated out of a well deserved victory. I time out and if the game was close, my opponent wins, but the win is kind of hallow compared to him making a good move or me falling for a trap that he has set up.

I understand not wanting to time out, but I look at it as something that is my responsibility. If I have a problem with the time limit of a game, I don't join the game. Since it is my life that changed in the middle of a running game, that's the breaks. I hate losing for any reason, but it's my fault for timing out.

If you can get your color coded list happening, what will you say when you time out the next time? Things happen, right? In itself it's not an unreasonable request and I'm willing to bet it'd be fairly easy to make happen. Especially seeing how it's already in place to warn you that you have just an hour left by changing to red. If Fencer makes the change, I'll have to think about what time I'd make the warning change color. I could just shut it off, but color difference does draw attention to something. Do you think 24 hours is a good cut off?
