-OR- 5 minute only?
I'd be in favor of 5-minute only. 1, 2, 3 and 4 gives away too much.
Also, I wonder if there would be a way to limit it on freemiums to 10, 25, 50, or 100 speed games per month?
To be honest, I don't think 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 makes a difference in whether people will pay or not. I'd actually say only 3-5 because 1-2 minute turn times are actually a disadvantage to someone new to the site. (I've added this info into my OP. Thanks for your comment).
Limiting freemiums on total speed games, might not be a bad idea, but I don't think it should be too restrictive. I can go to other sites and get the same experience I am describing here for free with no limit on games played. People on that site pay for even more minute feature upgrades than playing speed on all the amazing maps on CC.

Out of all the suggestions that get posted, a few move to Sticky, which is where this one is at right now. If there continues to be a lot of support, or well, for whatever reason, it will get moved to Submitted. At that point, it is up to Lack and Lack alone whether to implement it.
OK, there's a lot of the above that is oversimplification, but overall that's how it works. I'm currently working on some organization of older suggestions, but I'd be happy to move this to Submitted when I get to this one. With the caveat that I'm a volunteer and only have a limited amount of time to work on the forum, I don't mind at all if anyone calls me out on this statement in a couple months, if I haven't done so or at least explained why not. As I've said before, I think that this suggestion is great for the site and increases our competitiveness with similar sites. So I have no problem trying to find out if/when/why this will/won't happen.

I don't think so. Giving unpaid players access to free speed games on the Classic Map is a gift. If they want to abuse that gift by then asking for more, we can always take the gift away

Both suggestions are about giving speed games to freemiums.

First off, I think it's a good idea to at least try. Whether or not it would actually boost membership is still to be determined but I suppose it's worth a shot. However, I think that this suggestion could in some ways be a two-sided coin. You may gain new subscribers from those who get addicted to the game but then again you may lose potential subscribers in that free classic speed games may be all the new recruits want.
If I had been able to play free classic speed games when I first joined the site I don't know if I would have decided to buy premium.

For this reason, I think that if we implement this, it should be with a cap on the number of free Classic speed games you can play per month. I do not know what the number should be. 10? 25?
