Hey there,
Is it a problem if one of your extra turns in a tourney takes about 20 minutes? I just had a looong 3rd game on mws with solidarity and just thought this may leads to problems with the judges if I combo off in an extra turn (and can't end it quickly), am I wrong?
Thanks

Extra turns are untimed.
I have a hard time believeing you spent twenty minutes on one turn and weren't playing slowly. Extra turns are technically not timed, but Slow Play and Stalling rules still apply.
It's very important to realize the difference between Stalling and Slow Play. Stalling is intentionally playing slowly and is cheating, while Slow Play is unintentionally playing too slowly to move the game forwards at a reasonable pace.
I don't know what pace you were playing at, but most likely it was too slow.
133. Tournament Error — Slow Play
Definition
Players who take longer than is reasonably required to complete game actions are engaging in Slow Play. If a judge believes a player is intentionally playing slowly to take advantage of a time limit, a Cheating — Stalling infractionshould be used instead.
“It's possible. But it involves... {checks archives} Nature's Revolt, Opalescence, two Unstable Shapeshifters (one of which started as a Doppelganger), a Tide, an animated land, a creature with Fading, a Silver Wyvern, some way to get a creature into play in response to stuff, some way to get a land into play in response to stuff (a different land from the animated land), and one heck of a Rube Goldberg timing diagram.”
