The tournament page indicates that "tournament games time out automatically 2 days after the timeout period expires."

Considering a case where there is 0 day timeout:

If both players ran out of timebank and both decided not to time the other out, would the game run like a 2/0 (two days timeout, zero day timebank) game or like an 0/2 (zero day timeout, 2 days timebank) game?

Neither really.

It won't be like a 2/0 because either player could claim TO. It would be closer to the 0/2, but not exactly, because auto TO will happen immediately at the end of timebank, instead of 2 days later. If you get me.

From this I gather that by not taking a skull in a 0 day timeout game, my opponent has two days to play out the rest of his moves.

I'm not sure if I understood you, or if my logic here is correct, but I may see what happens anyway.

Thanks for the response. :-)

No, 2 days to play each move is my understanding.
