Rapid Tournament issues

[McQ]

There shouldn't be 'rapid' fixed time limit tournaments if players can just ignore the limit and keep playing. Time's up, I hit skip and they just play within the 20 second wait time.

Now I'm gonna get dinged for leaving a tournament because it's no fun getting beat when I play within the rules and my opponents don't.

Hello

Furthermore, to the previous post.

I really do wish BGA would consider either abolishing or suspendeding the SKIP BUTTON. A game should be over when a player has ran out of time.

I play in a couple of Turn-Based Tournaments daily and everyday the same players deliberately keep everyone else waiting for hours. Majority of the time they do not complete their games. Although their CLOCKS are always in the RED, nobody wants to skip their turns, because it is not a nice thing to do and if you do these players are known for giving out RED THUMBS.

Penalties they incur seem to have no bearing.

I would be grateful if BGA could respond with some sort of solution.

Kind Regards
