I've always wondered what the time constraints are for the different  catergories (but did nothing about itUndecided). Is there a standard regulation ,or does chess.com have different time categories from other places? Maybe I'll go have a look now and see what I find.

....i'm back. O.k wikipedia (yeah, I know) said this:

  • Bullet: 1 or 2 minutes per side.
  • Blitz: 5 minutes per side, Sudden Death
  • Quick: less than 30 minutes per player, sometimes with a small time increment per move.
  • Armageddon: a single game guaranteed to produce a result, because Black has draw odds (that is, for Black, a draw is equal to a victory). To compensate, White has more time on the clock.

except, chess.com seem to have called bullet - quick and there is no quick.

would folk agree, is this about right?
