"Better move all around!"
Point Kerall!

OoC: Yes, there has been a precedence / school of thought that if the opponent doesn't post in more than 24 hours (and the fighters hasn't agreed on giving more time) a fighter may win by default. I don't know how many times a fighter has actually been given such a technical victory, though.

OoC: Oh, I understand. I didn't know about that rule.
Anyway... my last post before "The secret chimera..." was on 3/3 at 1.17 PM (my time), so when Sollir asked for a "win by default", only one day and a half had passed (not 2 and certainly not more than 2).
That day and a half was just because LHH took about 20 hours to post the new hand and turtle then took about 17 hours before posting his move. Basically, I didn't post because I couldn't.
Either that or the boards are displaying me wrong times, but I know that I've visited the thread multiple times a day, every day.
Should I have posted a *bump* just to note that I was still there - a keepalive? I could, but I saw no need since the thread was on the first page anyway and I didn't want to spam it.
Don't misinterpret me, I have no trouble at all if the judge or the opponent can't post for a long period of time, actually I myself have that problem relatively often! But I don't think I should be penalized because I've had to wait for you. Thanks, turtle, for not raising the problem, but I think I would have challenged a default win in these conditions.
Just for safety... I will start posting "keepalives" in my future fights if I find myself in the same situation.

Apologies for hijacking the thread just thought I should clarify something...
A player can ask for a forfeit if the opponent has not posted for 24 hours without giving a reason. However, they are asked to be kind if the board roll over and die or the lag beasts decide that the messageboards would be a good target. Posting anything in the thread counts to stay alive even if its a simple *bump* but in the future if you are going to be away for a while and know in advance mention that.
