I don't understand all this fuss over timing out in games. I have completed close to 2000 games on IYT and this site, and I have timed out in 6 of them, all 6 were on one occasion when I was out of town for a week without computer access.
It is not difficult to avoid timing out-- choose games with at least 3 days to move, and don't let the timer get so low that tewchnical problems can result in a timeout. Also, don't start so many games that they can't all be gotten to in time because of the sheer volume.
I have just timed out on games because I could not get into this site, I am limited to dialup at the moment, and find my game sheet takes an inordinate time to load or just will not load at all..has this been a site wide problem or is it just happening to me? I know dial up is slower than cable, but none of the other sites seem to be affected
It's hard to say what is to blame. I have a cable modem and I have not had any trouble making moves tonight. The dialup should be slower, but not so dramatically slower. It could be a combination of things.
