How about a feature for TM that 'freezes' a game, i.e; timelimit.

This would be very handy for clan wars and tourdaments, so that games can't be finished until a problem/absence/dispite is resolved.

Comments?

Yeah, this sounds good! The game could go into some kind of limbo on the server, where it isn't received by either side until after the game is reactivated. It could also stop decrementing the time limit remaining. This would be nice for when people go on vacation, or if there is a problem we want to resolve with a game before we continue it.

I mentioned something similar in http://massiveassault.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1826, but I think this idea is better.

It would only be able to be used through Tourdament Manager.
