  They asked our opinions in the forum before implementing this, we all said NO THANKS.

  Good to know they're listening to us!

  But they got hordes of emails saying YES YES YES.  So see, they did listen, as we have heard that the emails vastly outnumber the forum posts.

  EDIT.. If I am not mistaken, it kicks you at the end of the second time out.  It used to be the third.  That is what I have noticed in multi stroke anyway.  Why we normally use a 90 sec timer, gives more time to chat without timing out.  If it's different in other formats, not sure.

  If not mistaken, this was WGT's answer to the time out problem that some used to make others quit in credit games.  Now they didn't have to wait out 3 timeouts.

  Yes it's fair in credit games but a pain in the hole when playing socially for fun.

  But if it makes the game more honest, we'll happily live with it.

  Unless they changed it in the last month or so, you get booted the 2nd time you time out, not the 1st.

  On mobile H2H we have a 45 second timer and get disqualified after 2 time outs.

  Lost count of the times I've run to the loo or answered the door with the tablet in my hand.
