Suggestion: Even faster pace

Post by porpoiseoil »

The current 'fast pace' speed feels too slow for me - having up to 3 minutes for a turn is quite a long time (and even longer when players regularly go over time!).

I'd love another speed option that's even faster - or maybe some other way to indicate to potential players that we want want this to be a pretty rapid game.

The request for a blitz time control has been requested for a while in many games, but BGA doesn’t seem to listen. Imo the best way to do it in Ark Nova would be <1 minute to act each turn, with a 3 minute reserve that gets used whenever you go over the minute per turn. Once it’s depleted, you can be kicked. This would allow fast pace with the possibility to have some complex eagle/hypnosis/silver lake turns.

It's not 3 min per turn, it's 1 min per turn with a 3 min time bank.
