If you don't want to play 1hr go games, then don't sign up for them. I'm not suggesting dropping the 5 min games. But not everyone can play games at that pace (be it work or whatever), but want something that is quicker than the 24 hour games where deadbeats really do slow things down to an absolute crawl!

So you get a game with one deadbeat in it with a 1 hour limit. Suddenly that adds an unnecessary three hours onto the game. Assuming everybody else takes their turn in a timely manner that it takes an hour for them to play the game, that's a four hour game you're taking about, rather than a one hour one. Get another deadbeat in there and that turns into a seven hour game. Most people don't have the time or patience to sit at their computers for seven hours waiting for somebody to take their turn.
