In this echess format I don't think it's that big a thing as long as you have other games going.
In OTB, however, it's totally different.
It was a 3 day tournament, Sunday night the second day. I was playing a kid who was taught to never resign. Unfortunately, I drove to the tournament and did not stay at the hotel, the site of the tourney.
This kid played much longer than etiquette called for, probably hoping I'd have a heart attack or something.
It went on for so long that when it was finally over I had to withdraw from the tournament because I knew I'd get little sleep before the next round in the morning.
Unethical? Probably not. Just not a nice thing to do.
