Welcome to youplayit noob

That is a gread idea. I do some online playing on another site where you start with 240 hours to play a game. After your opponent moves, the clock starts ticking. Each time you make a move, you add another 24 hours to the clock (max of 240 hours).

Here there is a 30 day time out

Using the other system, one could easily set the base line and hours added feature at any level (for example for a quick game, set it at 24 hours base - adding 24 everytime you make a move (max 24) - thus you always have 24 hours after the other guy moves.

Even faster games could be set up (15 min base anyone!!!)

PS - hmm, 42 year old - old time gamer - I wonder how many of us fit that category
