OTB Time controls

Sort:
Dutch_Defense

You know how chess.com has 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 14 days per move as an option? My suggestion is to have a time control like OTB play. For example, let's say I have a total of 21 days for the game. On my first move, I have 21 days. I make a first move. Then I wait 3 days to make my second move. I now have 18 days left for the game. The clock doesn't keep going back to 21 days. You lose the game if you don't finish the game before your timebank runs out.

Great Idea! I also like the time controls onother sites where you have, say three days per move and a seven days Time Bank. The time bank starts going down when the first three days are used.
