I do not understand the math behind the time per move adverage. I have been making well over 100 moves per day foe the last week and my time per move gets longer and longer...


You have over 100 games going. At this time you have just left the site, presumably for a good night's sleep, where it is your move in 70 games.

Do not leave the site when it is your turn.

If you sleep for eight hours, and return to play as soon as you awaken, the time for your next 70 moves will be eight hours plus for each move.

You are playing too many games! How can you possibly fit working and drinking around them!

one problem with the average time/move is that it takes into account all games ever played, instead of the past 90 days, so when i had 250 games on the go it was 1 day, now ive only got 50 games but its still 17 hours because of the earlier slow period. fix this plz.


 i agree the last 90 days would be better.

Students and those with seasonal jobs would lower their time/move average at certain times of the year then enter tournaments they would not normally be eligible for then slow those down later.

The better solution, for you but not for the site, is to play as staplja2 and TheMouse2 once memberships run out.
