The number of boards available has been expanded to 150 - with timebank variations for each timeout period.

If you are in a siege queue and located more than about 3 back, I recommend you abandon your position and either take a vacant board or challenge someone who has taken a board already.

[edit: Oh, and there is a 21 day timeout board now too.]

GREAT!!!!

you have done us well yet again !

(
just to be a continual whinger: how about one board at each time limit with a queue ordered by ratings.

it would show who the kings and queens of rhp really are: whoever owned it would have to continually face the highest rated plaers on r.h.p. and prove their claim! - it would be a powerful claim to fame.

One last little problem -- re: the being in only one seige queue at a time. Well, apparently I'm in one. That's news to me, I've no doubt been in there for months. There doesn't seem to be a way to tell which one I'm in. Need I go through 150 boards to figure out?

Thanks

No, you just need to look in the now few queues that have tons of people waiting. There's not very many.

Do sieges have auto-timeouts like tournaments?

Good question! If there's not, I think everybody should adopt a position of taking a timeout whenever they become available in siege games. I don't like taking timeouts at any other time, but it would seem rude to make people behind you who want to play wait for someone who obviously isn't playing at the pace agreed when everybody entered the queue.

People don't seem to notice there are other timout-sieges apart from the 1-day variant. Maybe this can be advertised more clearly?

I would, but I can't afford a 0 timebank game. On top of that, I have the same question for my 3d/14d game.
