You gain one reputation for each game finished and where you wasn't out of time.

2 weeks, but looking back your account you've been collecting bad rep since more than 50 days ago?

You made a commitment to play games in a timely manner.
You made a commitment to have your health.

You were unable to fulfill both of those commitments, so you must deal with the consequences of not doing the one that you chose not to fulfill.

Yes, most people would choose health. But that doesn't mean that you are entitled to a free pass on the other. Play a game, finish on time, gain 1 reputation. Repeat until it is at a level you want.

I think that is quite close minded. Things can always happen. Nobody chooses to be in the hospital.

Having said that, I agree with voriki that the bad reputation collecting has been happening quite some time beyond this 2 week period.

Indeed, being in the hospital is valid reason not to log in, but a bad reputation once on BGA is not the end of the Orld and can be recovered quick

As long as he betters his way, and not abandon a game of Splendor like he has done today already, again.

My comment was not to say they shouldn't have gone to the hospital. My comment was that they chose to do something other than play in a timely manner.

If I'm at a restaurant, I step outside (and walk around the corner to the alleyway) to take a smoke break and someone robs me, should I get my meal for free?

There are ways of working out the issue. On BGA, finish a game on time for 1 reputation, repeat until reputation is where it is wanted.

Going to the hospital isn't always by choice, and even while recovering, not all have the luxury to be able to play inside the hospital. Some hospitals may charge outrageous prices for wifi, or maybe OP only plays on a desktop PC at home.

But you are correct that OP should now just finish his games, get his rep back a game at a time, which should not take that long.

I also advise OP to activate a "vacation joker" so he can take things a bit slower the next couple of days.
