Originally posted by kingshillI wouldn't be so sure, i'm sure there are plenty of 'players' on this site who have 98% or more of their moves decided by silicon and that can hardly be called playing chess.
VinceNoir9 must hold the record for actually not playing chess on here. 98% of his games have been decided by timeout..!!! He tried to play a HardCore tournament using his holiday setting to give him extra time.

* The correct number is 44,2 %
* He announced his wish to play many games in the GF
* he certainly is not the worst offender when it comes to misuse of timeout.
* Probably it can be seen as a TOS 3c case if some one accuses other to cheat (in any way and i am well aware of the fact, that there have been accusations aginst you, though in a different area).
* The posting you want to look at in "Site Ideas" is "no vacation tournament" "hardcore tournaments" "vacation" vacation misuse". The point has been made several times, without the powers that be have reacted on it.
But maybe if a highly ranked member brough forward the suggestion...?

Kingshill did say games decided by timeout.
Add the time outs for and against:
41.67% claimed by timeout
56.44% lost by timeout
and you get the 98% he mentioned.
We know little of VinceNoir9 circumstances, he pays a sub and supports the site.
41.67% timeout wins in 25 games means a total of 60 won games.
56.33% timeout losses in 89 games means a total of 158 lost games.
Thus, 114 games out of 218 games were decided by timeouts, which is 52.3%.
