14 Days Per Move!

Oh man, now that I look again, I see you're absolutely right! I completely missed that at first! I was too distracted by the poster in the background!

Does she play chess? I bet she's got some great openings.

That I have studied and can agree with your analysis. But, I'm referencing persons that are actually playing 14 Days per move! I guess there's a reason why the world is moving so sssslllloooowwww!

You really got some nerve! Mobile chess is long enough with two days. I choose 7 days/move for all my games, but if you check my average time per move, it's only 4-5 hours. My reason for posting a longer move time is so that I'm not pressured to make a move/use up vacation time if I am busy on the weekend. You can just check the player's average move time, and you'll get an accurate idea of how long they take to move. I don't think very many players at all take longer than 1 day/move, and the overwhelming majority takes much less.

Has someone forced you to play a 14 day per move game somehow?  I'm a little confused as to just where the problem lies.

It's the option given to those who see it as an acceptable terms for gameplay. TheGrobe wrote: Has someone forced you to play a 14 day per move game somehow?  I'm a little confused as to just where the problem lies.

And as an option, those that don't see it as acceptable terms for gameplay are under no obligation to play by those terms.

What's the problem exactly?

In my book " Chess Sociopath " Eric's bloodlust would never allow for such time controls.

Has anyone not resisted challenging mariostevenson to a 14 day limit game?

I'll look for the book! Skipgugg wrote: In my book " Chess Sociopath " Eric's bloodlust would never allow for such time controls.

Yes thank you. I included a brief storyline in my forums. Feel free to visit.

Sorry about the repeat. The Palm Pixi does that sometimes.

A neat option would be to be able to set a minimum time/move on challenges rather than simply rejecting them outright i.e. replace

Damn, I never knew I sucked. Imagine if I were good!

Actually, I wanted to complain that we do not have 28 days per move.

Check out the wildly misnamed "Never Ending Tournament", 25 months old already and probably another year to go. I'll make sure that you're invited for the next one.

mario, I play a lot of games with between a 7 and 14 day time limit. This is partly because I don't have convenient access to the net.

Your profile shows that you haven't even been a member of this site for 14 days, yet.

Don't mind me. I'm just feeding the trolls. They don't do that themselves you know.

Anyway, there's nothing worthwhile to add to this thread that hasn't already been posted. If you don't like long time-controls and can't get it through your thick skull that some people don't have the same privileges that black men seem to enjoy in arizona, then go have a f**king blitzkrieg near the border. You may have the white pieces.

Oh, and jjeffrey... Please don't post a picture of yourself, especially if you're the eldest :)
