Auto-resolution increases the chance for a draw.

I don't understand what the phrase "chance for a draw" means. Anyone can cheat, with or without auto-resolution. Is the idea that a rule about auto-resolution will suddenly make an honest player start cheating?

Don't pretend to be an expert in probability; if there's a probability, then it exists.

LOL) I'd love to play poker with you!

I can cheat even without auto-aim, in half a second. What's the point?

Allowing auto-aim "legalizes cheating," meaning that, in principle, using auto-aim is permitted, and how it's used will become secondary over time.

I don't understand what the phrase "a chance for cheaters" means. Anyone can cheat, with or without auto-aim. So, you introduce a rule about auto-aim, and then a normal, honest player will start cheating?

Are you going to take responsibility for all honest people? Maybe they will, why not, if the rules allow auto-aim.

Let's not get personal; let's discuss the rule. LOL, this isn't poker.

By the way, I've had an idea for a while: why not make it so that, according to the rules, a player is allowed to have 1 auto during the game?

This is utopia...

This is utopia...

Exactly, and I'd even say it's dystopia...

I agree with Ikhtiandr regarding the auto-save feature. In one of the tournaments I hosted, I allowed players to use the auto-save feature once during the game. As for cheating, I believe it would decrease. A player disconnected during their turn, turned off their computer, and then logged back in, claiming that the power went out or their internet connection failed. Of course, this can happen in reality. However, if there's an option to use the auto-save feature, the temptation to cheat is much lower. You could also implement a rule like this: if you don't use the auto-save feature, you can use it later. P.S. We've slightly deviated from the main topic. This thread is about time limits.

4 minutes standard

Let's try to bring back the good old times.
At least partially...

The poll is closed, and I'm summarizing the results. By a majority vote, we are establishing the following time limits in our rules: 6 minutes for 2SM4d and Anarchy; 6 minutes for Balance and Panic; 8 minutes for Mini-Nostalgia; 8 minutes for XL+U templates ((11 x 6 minutes + 32 x 8 minutes + 33 x 10 minutes) / 76 = 8.5789 minutes); 10 minutes for Jebus Cross. Note: Tournament organizers can set the time per turn at their discretion. Thank you all for the discussion and voting.
