Set preferences for game speed?

Post by Espina »

Is it possible to set preferences for game speed of games I am about to join?

I recently accidentally joined a game that was 12 moves per day. I did not realize it was that fast before it had started, so I had to play it. Unfortunately I do not have the luxury of playing all day , so eventually I ran out of time, and was expelled. (Actually, the first time I ran out of time I was not expelled, but I could never make up the time, and I was expelled at the last move, after it was clear that I was winning...but that is another story.) OK, so I lose some karma points, I play enough that I will make them up, so I am not complaining.

However, it would be nice if it were possible to set a preference so that games that are faster than I want to play (2 move per day or whatever) are either not shown to me in the lobby, or I am warned before I join them, so that I don't again accidentally join a game that is faster than I can sustain.

Thanks

Some kind of lobby table settings filter, blacklist/whitelist?

Yeah, that sounds useful.
