Obtain, nothing.
Only saying it's too bad.
I love fast games too, and am irritated when I have to wait.
But I like fairplay, too.
And I wait, even though I'm not a subscriber, because like someone said in correspondene games you don't see what happens.
And IMHO the lack of patience is not a good feature for playing chess.
I love to win when I am superior, not for an accident. It tastes bitter.
You are also adviced to claim timeout wins moderately when you register here.
If I fell aspleep while playing live, ok. I wouldn't complain.
In any case, you're right, it's a matter of experience.
Not used to this. Did not think I was dealing with war.
I'll no longer care the third time it happens.

I am a quite fresh player and I happened to play with a 1-day timeout and no timebank.
I happened to have an urgency and I had to leave for a 7-hour trip. So the timeout passed.
The nice guy did not wait an hour. Did not send me an email reminder. Did not decide to consider the fact that he had never waited before, and that something must have happened.
He ...[text shortened]... to ostracize this guy.
Sorry for the probably unsuitable post, but I'm really p***ed off.

I git mad at my mortgage company when they actually have the nerve to charge me a late fee for paying late! 😛
