Add more Time Options for Speed Games

[JoshyBoy]

Who supports the idea of a one minute speed game? I'm not sure if I do. Sure for smaller maps like Luxembourg or Doodle Earth, but try playing a one minute speed game on World 2.1, or an escalating Feudal where you make your move to wipe out your opponent in one go and you run out of time because you only have sixty seconds. It would not be fair on someone like myself who has a slow internet connection (mobile effin broadband) up against some one who can take over five territories in four seconds. Experienced players vs newer players would be a no contest. Just some thoughts guys, keep discussing and showing your support.

Cheers, JB

I dont understand why its create abouth these sugestion to much a problem.
If 2-3-8 people want to play WOrld 2,1 in 1 minute speed option, and you come and say "Sorry i dont want to alove you to play 1 minute speed game" .
If people want to play 1 minute,then i dont see where is problem here. You dont need to play 1 minute if you have slow interenet connction, you can take option 3 minute,or 5 minute speed game to play.
These sugestion its so long here, and we all ready realised ,that much big number support these sugestion, i belive that big number of mods also support these sugestion, and only what left its that Lack come here to accept or refuse these sugestion, and then you can lock these thread,or move to rejected options.
Its become pointles to bumping these,or create similar threads with same sugestion.

Ok, first off I was just making a point. You also have to remember that "Experienced players vs newer players would be a no contest". Second, I never bumped this thread, there was a post made yesterday before mine. I'm not opposing this suggestion just trying to make sure all points are covered.

Lack has liked the idea of additional variance in turn limits possibly in the future. We'll see what happens.

You have a valid point but wouldn't it be possible for 2 1/2 minute speed games to be available after a player has played say, 20 speed games. And 1 minute after 40 speed games. Also, I think it would be cool to name them this way:

Casual (24 hours)
Speed (5 minutes)
Express (2.5 minutes)
Insane (1 minute)

[White Moose]

This would be so AWESOME if it was implented!

Yes, it needed that many.

[TheForgivenOne]

Anyways, i just couldn't let this die, i know the community has wanted this for a while

Then you mods need to work your job,and every new sugestion who have speed sugestion to merge in one topic.
Also will be great from Lack to come and say "these sugestion its acepted,but i still dont have time to implemented,please focus one 1 topic related to speed sugestion,and no need to open zilion similar topics"

[TheForgivenOne]

If you really want me to merge every speed suggestion, i'll do it. It may take me a few hours to go through all the archives though

[Prankcall]

we need this,hurry hurry

[TheForgivenOne]

Also will be great from Lack to come and say "these sugestion its acepted,but i still dont have time to implemented,please focus one 1 topic related to speed sugestion,and no need to open zilion similar topics"

Also, remember that Newtonboy has been appointed as a Web Developer. Once he gets on the ground running, more and more Suggestions will be implemented.

I realy would like 1 minute game for almost all maps, with clickies you can attack on big maps also more then 30 territs and mostly thats enough

[KingUncles]

This could not be an option for big maps. Without clickable maps you cannot do too many moves in 2-3 minutes (take 40 territories for example).
But, again, it's another option to play so welcome if Lack makes it possible

I agree with this, ive played many speed games, of all map sizes, and ive ran out of time just with 5 minutes.
But with smaller maps it would be a good idea.

[thebest712]

why the title changes from can i pay... and 1 minute,...??
