How About opponents who already used all THE available time, but claim to be on vacation and keep moving all THE way in THE meanwhile while my time is getting washed away !? What can you do Against this abuse of vacation ?!?

this was often the topic of discussions. The evident suggestions:
* enforce timeouts in hardcore tournaments regardless of vacation.
* Do away with vacation (look for a comfortable move frequence enough timebank).
* Ban offenders in hardcore tournaments to enter those.
As of now nothing has happened at that front.
My personal choice would be option I)

Tournament 19534
It is timebank only, so the timebank depletes on the players turn.
What the OP is complaining about is that he still losses timebank (after his opponents move) whil the opponent is already at zero and is protected by the vacation flag.
The suggestion to the OP to use the vacation flag also has been brought forward.
The startegy would be not to move and to set the vacation flag as soon as the own timeout is within reach thent o check daily and to take the skull as it comes up...
Originally posted by PonderableI should have known. The real issue is timebank-only controls. Those are ill-conceived, and make the time factor too important in the game.
