I think I like Glenn's idea of X days per move, with one warning before
forfeiture, and suspension upon proper notice of vacation, illness,
personal matters, etc.  Since this tournament should be viewed as a
friendly one between like-minded variant players, the rules shouldn't be
too restrictive.  I think 3 days per player-move should cover most
situations other than the aforementioned major ones, and it means that in
a year all games that take less than 60 full moves will be finished.  In
reality, games even much longer can probably be finished since players
will in most cases not take 3 days for every move.  For some games, and on
some days, I know that I will be able to play several moves if my opponent
is agreeable.
