Detailed description
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
I recently played in a swiss tournament (4 player games) with a player that timed out in every round.
I played with the on the 2nd game and I suggested that they withdraw, but they didn't.
It seems senseless to allow players to join tournaments and ruin them from in-activity.
I am suggesting to automatic withdraw a player after they time out for the 2nd time in a tournament,
It maybe even possible to allow this on a time-out with just 1 game.
This will perhaps set the precedent to setup tournaments with stricter rules and better time-frames.• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened

Report history
It makes a swiss tournament just unplayable when 10%-20% of the players in the tournament are timing out, especially for multiplayer games.
It also means that every round will take the maximum duration, because absent players can cause a tournament game to take the maximum time (unless the other players kick them and properly end the game).
When you have a tournament configured "don't play the same person twice", that just means that the absent players get randomly paired against other people.
The only "solution" for the way BGA currently is configured it to just play multiplayer elimination tournaments. There the absent players get eliminated after the first round and then the only people left are playing for real.
