I do agree. I have points against this but I don't want to argue against this at all.


My post solely aimed to give food for thought; both for upcoming tournaments as well as - if they did stall (I only questioned it, I didn't judge nor suggest, or even have a look at the player names) - players that may have a tendency to stall.

I know GreatGonzales and the RawkHawk (always making me think of my favorite NGC game ) as active and fair players, however, so I would like to apologize for jumping the gun. Still I believe that, if you don't have the perfect answer to a turn at first glance, and also not on the second, you might want to procrastinate. I've been there before. Not only in Advance Wars or other strategy games - but also in real life. I consider this a natural thing and the only thing I suggest is that there may be a possibility that procrastination is what's happening here.


In the end of the day, Gonzales or not, RawkHawk or not, my point still stands: If the rules say that you "should please please not take longer than 2 days", people in the tournament should stick with it for fairness' sake, no matter the reason. In exceptional cases it should be allowed with notice beforehand, but I can't think of any other life situation causing you not to have the 20 minutes before going to bed.
