: : Well you will be getting a lot of email as lately you can sit in the room for 45mins to an hour waiting for someone to come in - i would end up playing in other rooms as I come in to play and there just wasn't anyone home. By the time I would maybe be there when someone would come in, then it was time for beddie bye. I work during the day so i only have a limited time frame for playing. I was finding myself loosing out on playing anywhere as waiting for someone to come in (and that wouldn't happen) then other games had already started. Now if i have to wait for the "right ranked" person to come in, then that makes it very difficult. However, I will email and let u know the time i'm in there and who i play and why.
If I'm understanding the rules correctly - this is being enforced to prevent players who are in the top 10 and avoid games so they can hold their position longer - however, if you look at a player's time of play and c that they play everyday for a long stretch then out for 3 days - that would indicate, i would think, that something has happened as this isn't their normal track record. I also realize that since I am not in your position I don't understanding all the ins and outs. So, I will definitely watch from here on in that if i'm unable to play for a 3 day stretch then I only play a person ranked below me. And if that isn't possible due to lack of that ranking available for play, i will email and hope that takes care of this happening again.
Thank you all for the time it takes to put and keep this site together and dealing with all of us and the different personalities. You do a great job and if you didn't hang in there, we wouldn't have a place to play and the opportunity to complain about these "trivial" situations.
Thanks again :):)
