When I moved the system to the new server I had the claim button turned off to avoid people losing games because they couldn't access the site.

Unfortunately as you know I had to bring the site back to the old server, and when I did that I forgot to turn the claim button off there as well, so there was a small window of time where the claim button was enabled, and unfortunately some of our more impacient members took advantage of it and claimed some games.

I just want to tell the affected members that I intend to reinstate those games, I'm not an unfair person, I just made a little mistake in the heat of a very complicated day for the site. I will repair my mistake by reopening those games in the next day or two.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Miquel, no problem at all, as I told you earlier.
I am sorry to hear of your server problems.
Yes, I had to take a vacation because of my
job situation. This is why I use the maximun
move time of fourteen days. I will try to move
faster so my opponents will not think I am stalling.

Ok, I reopened the games that were claimed during the down time last weekend. I'm sorry it took me so long.

There was a case where the claimed game caused a tournament to advance to the next round. In that case I restored the tournament to the previous round and converted the games on the deleted round to standard non-tournament games.

I also restored the Claim Game icon, all those who were waiting to claim their games can do so now.

Thank you very much for your service

This is why I like plying here.

You treat everyone fairly, and go
way out of your way to make things
right and work very well for all.
