Subject: Just curious.....
Hi All

I have about 25 different tournament games with ONE person that NEVER moves our games. The time just keeps rolling over and over. They never time out. He never moves. Will they ever end??? lol

Is there anything that can be done? It seems like such a waste of game space, and surely they are holding up the tourneys!!!

Just curious....

Babe68:I am not an expert in all those vacation/time for move/time for game issues ... but you are right it has to change ... I was once playing chess on another site, than quit playing my games, came back to the same site after several months and my time was still ticking and the other guy was (at least I think so) waiting for my move ...  it's idiotic ... I am playing now backgammon and my opponent moves every second day ...
my question is ... what is the pleasure of playing such a dynamic game for weeks or months ?
I understand it's turn based site but common, 30 days should be absolute maximum for a game ...
after 30 days it should be over ... if you are traveling constantly and have no time to make 1 move in a week than please do not join a game ... start collecting stamps or something ... they can wait ...
