Disappearing holidays
Today I booked a holiday because my wife was in hospital and I needed the time to see to her needs. But just now I see that the booking vanished and I lost two games. I'm sure this happened once before. I am not pleased.
You haven't used your 30 days? All the best to you two.
Ageling, did you by any chance make a move in one of your games while on holiday?
The system automatically changes the holiday status as soon as a player makes a move.

I don't think I did. I was away all day.
I then apologise, Ageling... that should not have happened. We will investigate to see if we can discover what happened.
To Yotta Today, I came back from vacation, I did not make any move during the vacation. Before I click the "Back from vacation" button, everything is fine. All my games are listed there waiting for me to make the move. As soon as I click the "Back from vacation button" and go to My game, I have just loss three games. The system will not allow me to enter the moves immediately. Something is wrong with the program. I agree with ageling on this. I loss three games because of vacation. Something is wrong. I should have made all the moves in all the games before I click the "Back from vacation" button. Then I would have saved that three games I loss.
I sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused. We will try to get the issue resolved asap.
We have temporarily disabled the ability to claim timeouts until we can determine exactly what is causing the problem.
Ok, so I believe we have isolated and fixed the bug that caused the problem where timeouts could be claimed after a player is back from holiday.
Ageling and Geechan... once again... we cannot apologize enough for the inconvenience caused.
Geechan... a big thanks for your thorough description... it help a LOT for us to track down the issue.
If anyone still experience any problems with timeouts... please let us know as soon as possible so that we can investigate.

Just to summarize for everyone how the vacation days work...
