hello
I'll put it simply:
I think that the shorter 5-days time out in the preferences when creating a game is still too long.

Thus I would suggest to give more options when creating a game, including a super-quick slow player time of 24 hours for people really interested in quick games. It's just an option for players and tournament directors, I bet that many would appreciate it. Who thinks a longer time out is always required simply will ignore it.

Any chance someone in charge here will consider this suggestion?

thanks.


As I recall, there is a 3 day time out option for league games, but haven't ever seen one posted with that time setting.

Given time zone differences and real life demands, I think you would find it hard to fill a tournament or larger sized multiplayer game with a one day time out, as even one five days is too short for some players.

regards,

markrendl


I understand, but as I said this would be only a further option added for who thinks it is better a shorter time. Everyone can simply ingore this option if not interested.

I have noticed when there are many players in a game often happens one or two lose interest, and the game becomes too slow. This causes other players losing interest...


At the moment I'm in a "self made" seven players tournament.
Every player is happy with our pace, each of us have five or six games running at the same moment (there are 107 games 2 vs 2 scheduled in total and we are at 1/3 of the way playing more or less 350 moves/month) . Should one player lose interest suddenly the tournament would be not manageable with this exaggerated five day timeout. Hence my proposal
