vacation and tournament

Submitted by dantpatrick on Tue, 04/29/2008 at 3:43pm.

i dont think that vacation should be allowed in tournaments.  what is the purpose of quick or one day per move if  one can just go on vacation in the middle of the game. it do not make any sense. resign or keep playing. no one should have to wait beside the tournament time limit.

i agree too, after all in a real tournament how daft would it be if a contestant made his move and said "see you in a couple of weeks, i'm going on vacation" he would have to forfeit.
