Timeout Emails & Forum Names

[rtayek1]

iirc, i have had this problem before. (not getting email notification before timeout)

recently i have been forced to log in to the forum despite being logged in to ogs.

now, it seems like i have somehow created another account (rtayek1 instead of rtayek). so it’s hard to find the old thread.

i got a timeout in this game: https://online-go.com/game/19549986.
i got one email on 9/19.

also, major kudos to whoever came up with the zero that lets you cycle through the games where it is not your turn to move.

thanks

@Mulsiphix1 and @Kosh discussed the forum name issue recently and I think through a lot of hoop jumping Kosh was able to resolve it? I can’t remember the name of the thread so maybe one of them can link it.

That looks like it came in before the game ended, so what’s the problem there?

In my case the problem arose because I began a new profile on the main OGS site. Note however, that there was an 18 month lag in triggering the problem.

Here’s the thread: Multiple forum accounts where @BHydden has quite a few laughs at my expense and here’s the resolution/summary post of my particular case: Multiple forum accounts - #21 by Kosh

@BHydden

And here we have exhibit A for why you should only ever have one account on any site you care about

No argument from me.

I did most of the functional coding and @flovo fixed up the visuals

While my response is located in the thread Kosh so kindly linked already, here is a direct link to the exact post where I outline my personal situation.
