On the other hand, Weyerstrass plays with huge time controls. Sometimes, I get worried about his timebank in his games and the fact that he hasn't gone on vacation all year yet.
some thesis:
* moving timeout is part of the gaem.
* there are circumstances in which I will not take time outs and that's the case with a lot of players here
* these circumstances do NOT include the rating of the opponent
* these circumstances do not include the position in the players tables.
* time outs are enforced (loosely) in tournamnets anyway
* I would suggest to establish automatic timeouts in clan games, clan league games and siege games also due to the fact that these are in some way competetive.
*Weyerstrass is by all we know an adult person who is in a position to look after his own affairs very well
* Weyerstrass didn't drop a game to time management in about 3 and ahalf years on this site
* even if he has games in which the time banks are depleting he does move on a regular basis. so we can safely assume that he is well aware of his games
* At this time Weyertrass has 13 games in progress, which is not an astronomical number.
there are no gray areas for me; i take the timeout every single time no matter the circumstances and it makes it much easier because i dont feel bad for the fact that it says it in my profile. everyone should follow my example and take the skull every time, that way, nobody would ever cry
