This topic has been beat up many times over the past four years. Sorry, but here's one more go round on it.
I am currently on vacation for a week. I am immune from losing on time.
However, if an opponent's skull appears, I'm free to claim the time out win.
This just seems fundamentally wrong to me.
I don't think it's enough to suggest that i personally simply refain from taking the win, as (1) it's my choice, and (2) we're not talking about just one person - it's what is fair for everyone that counts.
Recommendations:
1. post my return date visible to all
2. once i've posted my vacation time to that certain date, make my opponents equally protected from being timed out until that date, even if I cancel my vacation and return early
3. alternatively, should I cancel part of my vacation and return early, then at least send an email to my opponents telling them that i am back, and make it at least two days from my return before being able to claim a time out win.
I see no harm in putting rules like this in place, and it would make the vacation system a lot more fair than it currently seems to be
