ICC Help: resume

Command:  resume

This command is used to finish your stored (adjourned) games. When you type "resume", ICC will send a "match" request to all opponents for which you have a stored game, and who are not currently playing a game, and not in a tournament. If one of them accepts the match request, the stored game will begin and you can finish it with your opponent.

Please use "resume" often, to clear out your stored games. It's a good habit to type "resume" every time you log in. "stored" shows a list of your stored (adjourned) games.

If you have an opponent who refuses to continue a stored game, read help adjudicate.

If the game was adjourned because your opponent disconnected, you will receive a 15 second bonus to your clock.

When you issue a "seek", a "resume" command is also issued for you. It is more important to finish stored games than to begin new games.

If you never want to have to deal with adjourned games and resuming, please read help noescape.
