DISCUSSIONS on “Rules for online games in HoMM3 and formulas for calculating player rating.”

The 6-minute timer in SOD is simply awful; you sit there on your day off, like an idiot, waiting for your turn – you can’t even go to the bathroom, do the dishes, or take a break. As a result, your family is also unhappy, and you play nervously, which affects the quality of the game. Therefore, whenever possible, I always play with unlimited time, which doesn’t affect the turn time. If they add a sand timer in HD mode, that would be really great. And reducing the game time through restarts is really stupid.
