How about if in tournaments the time extension had to be approved by someone out of the game, like the crator of the tournament. He could then analize fastness or slowlyness of the player who is being offered the time extension and decide if it could be done or not. Of course that in that case there would have to be a way, of kbowing the exact time of each play
El Cid: I don`t like the idea that a player should have the chance to get time extension because thr biggest problem is that there are so many slow players and players that start games and then make one move and the next thing you know is that the game is over due to time out. They don`t respond to mail so you can`t know why they don`t play the game. That`s a greater problem.
Blackadder Mr K: Does Fencer have any statistics on the number of slow players and how much they hold up tournaments? In my experience, there are very few!
tonyh: They may be few but you do remember them when you meet them,,,, No I havn`t talked to Fencer about this because I think ( hope ) thay they do have a good reason to act the way they do,,,,
Blackadder Mr K: They don`t respond to mail so you can`t know why they don`t play the game. In that case you wouldn't grant the time extension... the original request was for "possibility to give an opponent more time for a move", not to abolish them all together.
