I am really enjoying 5 min time control games against the chess bots. It would be great if one could have a separate rating specifically for bot play with each of the time controls. Obviously this would have nothing to do with your real chess ratings against humans. (in the same way that your tactics rating doesn't really reflect how good you are at playing chess)

Are there any plans for chess.com to add this feature.

I've suggested that in the past to staff, but as far as I'm aware, it's not something planned.

Since bots move quickly, if you just set a timer running it would be an approximation of a timed game, maybe add a minute for all the timed moves.

For example if you want to simulate a 5 minute game, maybe set a 6 minute timer.

Thanks for the replies.

I play 10 min games and try to complete in 6 mins to simulate a 5 min blitz. My current bot is 1300 (I guess this is a daily chess rating, ie no time limit on moves - most humans of this rating are about 300 points lower at blitz, so I am assuming that my 1300 bot is about 1000 blitz rating which is a bit depressing because it wins more than I do !!)
