I know how you feel mate, I recently came back from vacation to find I had been timed out in over 8 games, and 2 of them I had clearly won. I even messaged them before that I would be away for a week.

Everyone who claims through vacation settings is weak. They don't have the guts to finish a game properly, or admit defeat when they are lost.

Can you believe that some actually play out endgames just in hope that you might time out?

I'm not defending those who timed anyone out with a vacation setting in place (Brother Edwin and I are playing now), but just wanted to point out that a lot of folks list their time-out opinions in their profile. Some folks will timeout Clan matches and Tourney's ASAP, while waiting on other games.

You all did the right thing, putting up a vacation notice and indicating return time and letting people know, beyond that - there's really nothing you can do.... except maybe challenge those players again and win one!
