Hi,

If dummy leaves a tournament on the last board and does NOT get subbed is it still recorded as a tournament abandoned?

Does this mean if someone is sub'd out of a tournament, it's recorded as if they abandoned the tourney?

Can a player have mulitple counts logged against them in a single tournament?

ie: they disconnect/reconnect a few times.

And what if you are sub'd out of a tourney involuntarily by a TD? Why would that count against you?

Don't sweat these details. The exact numbers don't matter. The idea is to make the T experience smoother for the people who dont have bad connections, who don't get subbed out all the time, and who don't abandon a lot of Ts. And to improve the life of the TDs.

Can someone have multiple counts ? I don't remember what the code does. I don't think so but i could easily be wrong.

Why should it count against you? Perhaps it shouldnt but imo, it should. I wouldnt want to play with someone who was routinely kicked out of Ts.

I don’t have any complaints about this process, I wanted to know how it worked so that I can give players the correct information. I think the ratio of tournaments entered/abandoned is generous enough to only catch the habitual deserters.

One change I think should be made is for TD’s not to sub-subs if the original player returns.
