Has there been some change to the timeout system? I've just
returned from a two-week holiday to find I've been timed out on a
game that I'm sure used to have a 21 day limit. But when I look at
the game details, it and various other old games of mine are listed as
having 16 day time-outs, which I didn't even know existed as an
available option. Anyway, it's annoying. I was winning.

When there were server problems, and people couldn't log in because RHP was down, the Lords of
The Realm, namely Chris and Russ, added two days to T/0s on games. I know 7 day games
became 9 day games, and apparently 14 day became 16 day. After the new server, it seemed
these didn't get reset to the original timeouts. I know I have/had a few games still with 9 days
from way back then.
I'd bet you actually had a 14 day T/0, and that got kicked up to 16. But verify with Chris and Russ.
