Yes, but are you in Freestyle or Sequential? A freestyle game can bring your turn up in a heartbeat, and if you are sweeping a map in another game, to come back to another one, where a minute and 15 second has passed, which has forced you to miss your turn, it could basically make you lose the game. In my opinion, 2 games isn't too many at one time.

There is a movement to create more speed game options, like a 2 minute turn or a 3 minute turn. I think that would be a more feasible option than this idea.

30 second turns

Post by jakewesthoff »

a ton of people will play more speed games if there was a 30 second turn...meaning you have 30 second to do something befoer u time out....if you continue playing you could have more then 30 seconds of time to play

Yes, it's already been submitted. 30 seconds is a little too fast I think.

I'm sure it's an ad-bot. Maybe the C&A Team will see it without me posting a report.

I'm currently working on this :-)

I'm leaning towards enabling all options:
  • 5 minutes
  • 4 minutes
  • 3 minutes
  • 2 minutes
  • 1 minute

Idk, if it really makes much difference, but there may not be a need for 4 or even 3 minutes??
We wouldn't want so many options that it just makes it less simple to play a speed game when you have to choose between too many different games with different time limits?

whats the point of reducing the time when maps become bigger and bigger over time? Or 1,2 and 3 min are intended for 1,2 or 3 maps only?

why not adding for example 10-15 minutes games?

P.S. So far I haven't played any speed game, I don't plan to, not with 5 min time per turn...

Yea, while we're at it, we might as well add 20, 30, 50, 100 minute turns.
