If they're on vacation, I'd wait 2 weeks, or I'd give them about 3 hours after returning from vacation, but that's it.
I say that if the time control is not enough for them, then don't accept my challenges.

If they have vacation flag set then I'll wait a week. If they can afford more than a week for vacation then they make too much money and deserve the loss.

I've skulled 4 opponents so far. I was clearly winning 3 of the games and skulled them instantly, but in the fourth, I was in dire straits. I waited 2 days and took the win.

Recently I went on vacation for 2 weeks. I was so worried about one of my games that I went to an internet cafe and played a move from Boracay Island, Philippines. Let me tell you, that was the slowest internet connection ever. Period. Great beach, though!

Correction, I'd wait 1 week then just skull them. 😀

About the ammount of time it takes for the impulse to get from my eye to my brain then from my brain to my mouse finger. 😉

Heh, that is evil. 😀

Never fear, timebank-depleters: this is only possible with 0 day time-to-move tourneys.

Are you so fearful of the Borg that you have given up moving in Game 3246133?
