How long can someone go on vacation?

I am playing someone who has timedout and has a vacation flag for about 6 months - is this possible? If so, does that mean I can only hold 5 other games for the next 6 months?

You get 36 days a year to book for a vacation as a member.
You can NOT be timed out on any of the 36 days you book for vacation. Your time clocks keep running thow, and will expire when times up. But your opponents can't claim the timeout win on a booked vacation day.
The rest is click skull time. 😀
If your opponents 36 days run out before they get back from vacation you then can claim the win.

this is what is vacation flag says:

charles d is on vacation and says...
Back on Monday 26 Feb. May not be able to move in the meantime.

looks like the last time he went on vacation was in feb and he didn't change the message this time, the last move in the game was 5 june. stop bitching.

I am not complaining - I just wanted to understand how it works. I thought his message meant he was going to be on vacation for 6 months and I wanted to know if that meant I was going to lose a game slot for that time period. How that equals b____ing I have no idea. Isn't that the purpose of the help forum? - to get help on something you don't understand.

thanks all kind responders- very helpdul. I will let you know if it doesn't work as you anticipated

Wrong on two counts.
1. It's 30 days
2. All MEMBERS don't get to use the Vacation Shuffle - only SUBSCRIBERS.*

Fair enough. 🙁

Ragnorak says in Thread 69651:
"How does someone abuse the system? If they move while on vacation, then they are still using up their vacation allowance."

He believes that there can't be any abuse about the vacation system of RHP.
He even quotes Russ to back his opinion.
