When you strat a new game you can chose your own time. Well, I had a look and I found these options:
5 (vertical line here) 0
2 (vertical line here) 0
15 (vertical line here) 10
What do they mean?
I can't make a head or tail out of them!

olyleon - here's what the numbers and lines mean:
5|0 - A 5 minute game with no seconds per move increment
2|0 - A 2-minute game with no seconds per move increment
15|10 - a 15 minute game with an increment of 10 seconds per move so each move you make, when it's your turn, will give you 10 additional seconds on the clock.
I hope this helps
