Posts from Time Limit: 6 или 4?

I've noticed the following pattern regarding my own gameplay.
I win more often against opponents when I play with a 4-minute timer, and, conversely, I lose more often when I agree to a 6-minute timer.
I wonder why that is.

I'm Pash, and I know a few players who have the same tendency:D Jebuse Alessandro spent 77 minutes and 15 seconds trying to convince me to play on Light difficulty for 6 minutes with battles, using a previous game as an example where they played for 8 hours and were worried it wouldn't last longer than 10. I solemnly promised him that it wouldn't take more than 5 hours. In the end, he lost due to a surrender, but it only took 3 hours.

What could this be for? :)

Let others at least have a chance to win a season. :D

I also often don't have enough time to finish by the 4-minute mark; I need 6 minutes, but so far, I've mostly won with 4 minutes, not 6.

Recently, I played a few games on an unranked server, and to be honest, I enjoyed it. It wasn't too long, and it wasn't stressful. I think that among players who know and respect each other, and each other's time, this is perfectly normal and acceptable. IMHO.

Lately, I've played a few games with unlimited turns, and honestly, I enjoyed it. It's not too long, and it's not stressful. I think that among players who know and respect each other, and each other's time, this is perfectly normal and acceptable. IMHO.

I often play with unlimited turns myself. It's not stressful at all. There was one case when my opponent fell asleep for an hour, but it happens.

In general, I'm addressing my potential opponents, especially those with whom I've played more than 3 games – in future games against me, I'm up for unlimited turns, but I'm ready for anything, even an extreme challenge like a 2-minute time limit. As for the time limit, I'll let my opponent choose.

I'm also for unlim! I just played one game like that, it's a shame I couldn't finish it because of bugs, but I really enjoyed it! But in general, in my opinion, a strong player should be able to play on 4 minutes and even on 2 minutes.

Unlimited turns are a good thing, but they can make you complacent. On the other hand, it's a great opportunity to conduct a thorough analysis during the game, like a single-player experience but with a strong opponent.

unlimited is a great thing... I'm for it.

yes, I respect smart ideas! in my opinion, Dirty_Player is right! for some easy, friendly match, 4 minutes, or even 2-3 minutes, is fine. but if it's a super important match, I won't argue, 6 minutes or more!

It’s funny to see such a topic when many people play for 10 hours straight.

In my opinion, 6 minutes is the limit; any more would be excessive! If a player cannot complete their turn within this time limit, it indicates a lack of focus and poor decision-making. Such a gamer doesn't know how to properly allocate and use time (both their own and their opponent's), has many unnecessary actions, and often only starts thinking on their own turn, thus wasting a lot of time. People don't know how to value time, but it is irreversible, unlike money. And I think that faster thinking wouldn't hurt, so I vote for the minimum possible turn time. In this case, 4 minutes.

Therefore, I vote for the minimum possible turn time. In this case - 4 minutes.

I was a little late with my vote, about 4 years.

Better late than never :D
