Why is so hard get yourself out of games ONCE subscribed in the past????
Now I understand the reason of so many offline players, it's Littlegolem problem, it makes a player considering to leave.
Stop with this fucking game.

I've never had a problem unsubscribing. Just go to the game page for Tzaar and remove yourself from whatever championship or pool. If you've already done that, then I don't know what's the problem.

*The following has applied for me at some point in last year. I don't know if the system changed.
The championships subscribe you to what should be called a league, a whole multi-tournament, multi-month affair. (ie if you get into 31, you get for 31.1, 31.2, ...)
As long as you are subscribed, you always get added to the next time a tournament opens in that specific game.
Starting from the moment you unsubscribe, you no longer get added to the next tournament number, but still play your current league. (ie if you are in 31, you play 31.1, 31.2 until 32 opens. You won't get added to 32.)
However, there is a fix: you can concede all games before making any move and then you won't get added to the next one in the same tournament number (ie concede all in 31.1 so you don't get added to 31.2)
Watch your aggressive tone, for your own benefit. Yes, this is not ideal, but it is what it is and I highly doubt the dev did it to annoy. As for the players, it may make you leave, but maybe others leave for other reasons. Thing is, modern abstracts are not popular. For me, the biggest reason players may leave is not that the tournament is weirdly divided into 31.1, 31.2, 32.1,... but that you don't really get games played outside tournaments, so you may have to wait a long time before actually playing, and then if a lot of people subscribe, you get all of the sudden like 15-50 games at the same time. Also, due to the lack of popularity of modern abstracts, a player won't find players close to their skill level so most games are landslides in one way or the other, which is not ideal.

This particular case is a monthly cup (the one that started in September). Since you won a majority of your games, you quaified for the next round (which started in late December). This won't spawn any more games, as you resigned a sufficient number of games.
Happy trails, and I hope the quirks of this server don't drive you away.
