Please reduce turn time

Post by GeneralIgnorance »

Please reduce the time allowed for each turn. It is incredibly frustrating and sucks all enjoyment out of playing the game when the opponent takes 30+ minutes total thinking time to finish a game.

There is no way it should take over a minute to figure out a move.

Slow players are destroying the game on this site. Especially playing arena, turns should be 90 seconds maximum.

If you play Real Time in fast speed, the time you get is +0:48 per turn (by now - i think that's sometimes adjusted from data of how many people go overtime). That's not more than you are suggesting. So maybe you've been playing on the wrong time setting?

Maximum time is 3minutes. So yes sometimes they are allowed to have a slower turn. But not on average.
