Do many play the 5 minute game? I might give it a try later.

I've been playing a lot of 3 minute and I like it, but 5 minutes could be a better time frame. I'll try a few games.
5 minute blitz was always the most popular chess format, even long before the invention of the digital clock.
Nowadays 3|2 is the standard blitz time control like for the blitz World Championship.

I was playing the 3|2 here, but the "time lag" thing was driving me nuts so I stopped and went back to the 3 minute game.
