Message:
Did you ever play in a tournament that was 80% complete and most people have 2 to 4 games left, EXCEPT ONE PERSON. Yeah right he has 16 games to go. Most people who have two games left are with this guy. This tournament will never end. Of course you are prevented in entering in other tournaments until you are finished in this tournament. Another aggravation of the game. What can you do?

Nothing i'm afraid derman53, people are entitled to take as much time as they like, unless their heavily losing when they should be made to play faster.

Those situations you described do happen sometimes, but you are able to start a new tourney once you've completed all YOUR games in it. So as soon as you get through your games against slowcoach and everyone else you'll be able to start another one irrespective of how many games are left in the tourney.

Yes, annoying. Nothing we can do about it I'm afraid though, and in this case is probably just their chosen speed of play. What's far worse I think is what happened in a tourney I joined a couple of weeks back. I was the 4th to join a 5 player tourney. The 5th player joined up and then immediately set a 30 day vacation flag without making a single move in any games in the tourney!
