It's not really that important.

Repeat & Continual time-out offenders poll: Penalization

Post by cliff » Fri Mar 13, 2009 9:25 pm

Well, this is my last rant on the topic for now.

What does everyone else think? Should repeat time-out offenders be penalized? And how?

Losing accrued time?

Earlier fofeit times?

An option in the Challange Page, to screen out offenders from Open Tournaments?

A way to 'evict' (or "unjoin") them from tournaments?

Anyone else?

Great poll! :D

Well, I've voted: It's not really that important.

As I stated before there are too few players for which those suggestions really would matter anyway. So I advise: Don't fuss about those games. Just play the games in which it's your turn.

CU, Joe

I chose the first option, but only if the person is losing all of the games he or she is timing out on. If you stop playing just because you're losing, then that's just plain annoying.

Oh and cliff, check out the number of total games I'm playing right now. You can say I learned something. :P
