How long in PGN until first KO?

Hi Everyone! I was just wondering for those of you who were KO'd out of PGN...how long were you in until you got your first KO?

I know I have only been in for a short time, and I know there is no rhyme or reason to how things go on in PGN, but I'm curious!

Thanks!

I think around 3-4 weeks... you could be hearing something soon! Good luck and I hope you don't even get a KO, just an OUT!

Our case was in for only a few days. You are correct; there is no rhyme or reason!
