Time Controls and Warnings

Please add a 15 minute game or better add 10 minutes 5 seconds. Currently with no move increment what you see is too many players in lost positions just pushing wood and playing for time, is that chess? This is supposed to be a chess site.

Also a 20 second warning is inadequate but with a move increment this would be okay.

Another helpful change would be a VERY LARGE box when time gets below 1 minute with VERY LARGE numbers ticking down.

The clock is part of the game.

You can create custom seeks to get most any time control you want.
