extra time before his time runs out
My opponent seems to get extra time just before his 3 days runs out. The game is not set with Fisher. Something strange here

Hi Gary
I think you've done more games than I have & been here quite awhile too. So I guess that really Does make this Interesting. (For you surely know about the extra day on Saturdays and the Vacation and Emergency PostPonement circumstances.) And I guess it is strange to me as well, & hope you get some good answer(s).

I mean, I can think of ways for the FBI to do this, I suppose (tho I know nothing about computers, as everyone knows; having just been informed that mine must be de-dusted inside ... Imagine that.) But they dont get to play GK at work do they!?

... and even a couple ways staffers could do this for someone   ... which finally brings me to my only useful point ... it is possible there can be a case where someone has called-in/written etc, and asked to be put on PP manually by staff if they do this. Some sites do, & I wrote in once long ago for such. But that would seem unusual for repeats as you mention. And probably they do not do this anymore with the Emergency PP added.

He used an (emergency?) postponement.
