has anyone messaged him to let him know his misdeeds are being publicly aired?

I am wondering whether he had a years vacation unused and decided that, one month before he resubscribed, he would use it all up and then have another years worth of vacation as soon as ths first lot expires.

It's been 36 days since the start of the April 2009 Sprint Split IV (started April 16). I am fairly certain Atri's vacation flag was up the day (or day after) that tournament started.

I fear a rating collapse isn't going to make him see sense, he'll just start more games to keep his total GIP where it is.

misdeeds?

He is just playing chess, nothing wrong with that.

Also with so many games he does not have time to read PM's.

I see Atri has resigned a lot of games even before his vacation flag falls.

What a magnificent game was 6319582! One to make the player of the white pieces particularly proud! Of course you could argue that Qh5 as a valiant last attempt was mandatory before resignation but the strength of the black position was undeniable. Bravo!

His clan brothers must also be proud of the stiff resolve that he demonstrated in game 6213977 when despite falling into a deep opening trap he soldiered on against all expectations and actually completed his 4th move. Outstanding!

It can't be too long. He's had it up since May 1 continuously and it was up some before that (he let it slip for a day on May 1).

Oh! Cruel fate! Just when I have to be away for a few days, Atri undergoes a precipitous ratings drop of the first order. He's vacation flag is still up - or did it come down and go up again? My head is spinning, must go lie down for a bit...

What turns my stomach is that he must have jettisoned those sparkling games the other day just to make room for more tournament games that he won't be playing.

I noticed that he resigned a lot of games, rather than letting them time out.

IT"S DOWN!!!! ATRI'S VACATION FLAG HAS FALLEN AT LAST!!!! AND SO HAS HIS RATING!!!! SORRY FOR ALL THE EXCLAMATION MARKS, BUT I AM REALLY EXCITED!!!! THE FALL OF ATRI'S VACATION FLAG RANKS IN HISTORY WITH THE FALL OF ROME, THE FALL OF SINGAPORE AND THE FALL OF THE BERLIN WALL!!!! THIS IS TRULY A MOMENT THAT WILL BE REMEMBERED THROUGH THE AGES!!!!

I hope everyone has cashed in, cos your Atri-timeouts are worth about as much as a Weimar deutchmark now...

...AND STILL HE HAS MORE THAN 2000 GAMES!!!!
