I swear I didn't change anything, but it seems fixed now. Any ideas what happened?
Game time settings changed?

I am also frustrated by this and was hoping to play a game of casual chess with a friend so we can analyze it afterwards. Am I just missing a setting? How do we turn off the auto-resign timer?

The site has never had the ability to have un-timed games. The closest you cold do is play Daily and treat as if it was live.

This is not exactly true. I very much have played games with an overall time, but not a turn timer limited to 1 minute (on this site). This is a problem. It is not ridiculous to want more than 60 seconds to make a move.

Okay, so it seems like if you make a custom game, set the length to 120 minutes (max), the turns are not actually timed. Play the first 2 moves each, and the game should be allowed to be played casually.

They should still be timed.
Hello!
Before the change, my friend and I would play casual 2 hour games with no turn clock.
Now, this option seems to have vanished. I set up a 120 minute game, and each turn has an auto-abort timer of 60 seconds. This is awful and prevents us from playing in the way we like, with conversation and whatnot.
Am I missing something?
Please help.
