I have a friend who, while subscribed, got through to another round of a tourney. Now that xer/xis subscription has run out, and they are competing in the next round, what happens now?

If they only have two games going and the next round starts which gives them say 6 games, then until they finish at least three games they will be unable to start new games.
If it is a 7/14 or longer tournament and their opponents are slow players then their daily game play could be severely limited.
Originally posted by ElleEffSeeeWell, technically, they were subscribed when they started the tournament. Subscription doesn't allow for people to enter tournaments. It wouldn't be fair to kick them out the moment they lose their subscription. Same when a user who loses their subscription and they have more than 6 games on the go. They wouldn't be able to start new games, but wouldn't be right to have games lost because they haven't got a subscription.
Thanks my fellow friends, I'll pass on the good news.
Though this shouldn't be allowed to happen should it? Seeing as the person in question isn't paying to use the site anymore, surely they shouldn't be allowed to continue using functionality restricted to subscribers?
