Love it

also agree should have option for 12h, 24h and 36h (48h is too much in 8 player games you may end up taking your turn every 2 weeks)

thanks for the update! Just played my first and last game at 1 minute on Classic. Just not enough time. Will be interesting for the freestyle dudes to crush some people with their quick movements even in sequential games.

Game 10308928

The good news was that it only took 9 minutes to complete the game. I'll try 2 minute rounds next.

The settings for Conquer Cup II will be posted on 2012-02-01...check out the Conquer Cup page! You can pre-register now, or wait until the settings have been announced and register then!

In regards to other time length options, I'm sure we'll look back into. Shorter Games has been one of the most wanted features for a long time, so it is about darn time we've gotten it I think! But Longer Games generally haven't had as much as a push. But if it seems like it would be a beneficial feature, we'll look into it!

Variable Speed Round Lengths

A very popular request, originally suggested by herndawg is to simply offer faster options for speed games. I must agree that 5 minutes is not exactly speedy, especially for sequential games with many players. Well I have good news... you can now play 5 minute, 4 minute, 3 minute 2 minute or even 1 minute speed games! I imagine the 1 minute games could be quite hectic on complex maps and would change the game from a strategic challenge to a quick-thinking dexterity contest. I must try that out on Supermax: Prison Riot! :twisted:




a lot of nice updates there, thanks

and 1 minute speed games are like speed chess i think, nice

Great alacrity in putting the update through. Played my first 1 minute turn game just now. Also lost my first, and missed my first turn in one ;P

Damn! hardly any 5 minute games up. Guess I have to emigrate again, to a country with proper internet :(

Apart from tournaments, speed games was what kept me excited about CC, alas!

Of course, Speed Games are a feature restricted to Premium Members. These members who support our club financially deserve very much to be rewarded with improved Speed Games. But it wouldn't be in the holiday spirit to leave out free members entirely. Therefore I have granted 3 free Speed Game entries to every active member of Conquer Club. Using these free entries is as easy as joining a Speed Game. These free entries will expire by the end of January, so why wait? Enjoy a Speed Game today!

Don't forget we have also started Conquer Club's official Winter Holidays 2011 celebration, which will include unlimited Speed Games on the Christmas map during the designated period of time! :D

Do the free speed games start immediately? I want to give my little brother a head's up, because he wants to play speed games.

All those extra addons beside shorter round times seem to be very nice!


Have you lost your mind?? The shorter rounds are the center of it all not only is it the best update it is also what all the other addons are for. I would go on further but i think i would start to break forum rules.

Awesome update Lack. However one suggestion in the game finder page perhaps there could be a button to click to search for all speed games.

Also I just played a 2 minute speed game and it wasn't auto-refreshing.

I'd love a 48 option, even tho I'd play almost all 24's my brother might actually play & stick around if 48 was an option so I could get some games in with him, as of right now 24 is to often for him and I don't get the chance.
