Excellent post as usual, and especially to distinguish between novice and open flights, where one might allow some slack while the other is playing for keeps and should rightly 'punish' a breach of the rules rather than step in to prevent an op from hitting the wall.

Unfortunately in bg, unlike many other games as you also point out, there is no official watching every match/play for infringements and that won't be happening anytime soon. So this leaves much to discretion, a contest between fair rules and their application according to what some players view as proper and others not only wrong but dangerous, since they will as they must lead to further complex issues later on.

I am surprised that the consensus appears to be faulting a player for not reminding his op that he's timing out, and rewarding the timed out player by giving him a second chance; imho this is absurd and can only harm bg over the long haul.
