I thought this would be really cool. We have formats like 3+2 but  what about adding a feature that would support time controls like 3+ -2 (you lose time instead of gaining time- decrement format)

Hope chess.com adds this feature.

@StrontiumButtMuscles thanks

let's say you are playing a Q and R vs K endgame. You have 5s on the clock and premove forced mate in 6, you are telling me that you'll run out of time with 5s on the clock and premoves? so basically a 30s-1 game is just a 30 move game, if both players play the fastest they can

This would be really cool, imagine grandmasters duking it out with his much time and losing moves instead of gaining. Few would be able to master this and new openers would likely be made for this.
