I couldnt find an open thread on the topic, though that might be my inexperiece on searching for them, but i too am irritated by players who fly the vacation flag, especially in tourneys, then move move move on all their games but the ones they are loosing in ... i get the thing about waiting it out, but up to 36 days is a long time ... and many times, many other players in the tournament are on hold because of this delay as well ... and i get that the player can move on all his games before he goes off of vacation.
what i dont get, is why doesnt RHP make vacation info "public" info ... why doesnt it somewhere say that the vacation is scheduled till such and such a date ... that way, we know exacely when to look to see if they made a move before the skull or not, otherwise, we have to check it every day ... there is no reason in the world that if you go on vacation, your end date should somehow be private ... there is no logical reason i can think of that the end date to a vacation should not be published, just as time out info is published ...
