I have been seeing people  complaining abt long daily games and I just thought if we did 12 hours then it will be a day per move and good for those who want to play faster daily games

Well, if both wanna play 12h, you can play a 24h game but move earlier, but why not

interesting idea although twelve hours is short since not everyone may have the time to play within the twelve hours of that move plus I think you may be able to set how long a daily game is, I'm pretty sure of this since once someone challenged me to a 10 second daily game

Those who want to play faster chess, can play in the Live Server right ?

It also appears to be a move speed setting that can be changed from something other than ANY to 3, 6, or 12 hours this might be the solution to your problem by setting this to 12 hours in a custom game. If I a wrong please correct me

That doesn't force move times, just limits the members that can accept the seek based on their average move time

I used to run Very Fast Daily tournaments, which is the fastest Daily time control.

I'd regularly get 150-200 people willing to play at that speed.

With tight timeout restrictions it would mean a multiple round tournament would fully play out from start to finish over about 6 weeks with even round 1 being hard fought with meaningful games. They were high quality, if I say so myself.

It can be done if you're prepared to put in some effort, but don't expect any support from chess.com.
