I've played 30 games with 2 and 3 day per move time limits. No game has taken longer than two weeks to complete because no one has taken 2 or 3 days per move.
I wanted to play in a tournament, so I joined one with a time limit of 5 days per move believing (based on previous experience) that no one would actually take 5 days to make a single move ?????
Well, my opponent takes 4 days and a half to make each move! I thought I could speed things up by offering a host of conditional moves on my turn, but he simple makes a move (the time resets to 5 days) and responds to my conditional move in 5 additional days!
I will be so happy when these games are over in a year or so :-)
My games are 14 days a move and I take every day I'm allowed. I'll never play 3-5 day/move blitz again!!!!
