Why is it that when a player is logged out due to inactivity or 3 consecutive fouls they are disqualified from a tournament straight away? There not even given any time to get back onto the server.

I bring this up because its just happened to me, i went away from the funkypool server (still at my computer) i just browsed a few other things an i must have been gone from the server for about 5 mins i return to be logged out the game server an also disqualified from the tournament. When i logged back into the game server hey ho no invite immediate disqualification.

But why is it when you receive a tournament invite an completely close the game server, that when you open it back up within the 3 minutes of course that the tournament invite is still there ready to accept.

Did you get disqualified because you did not accept the invite within three minutes?

Gone from the server for five minutes and you where logged out? Sounds to me that you lost connection to the site then as that is the only way it would have logged you out, unless you where sat on server not doing anything for the 20 - 30 minutes and then it logged you out for inactivity, if it did that before the tournament started then you won't get an invite at all hense the DQ from the tournament.
