Reasonable waiting period

[Crossroads]

Posted this originally on another thread, this one seems more appropriate however.

What happened was that I sent a flare to someone I lost touch with some six weeks ago. I asked the following open question as well:

---
Fellow members - what is the common thing to do in a case like this?

I would of course prefer to continue with the game, but if it has been a while I would just like to clean the PC from extra files and move on...

This has happened to me just once before. Reported the game as a draw then, as only a one third was completed, which is the case now as well.

My main motivation to report the game at all is the fact that I am quite new here and would like to show others that I am fairly active and a reliable gamer as such...

Advice appreciated
