Only now did I finally realize why so many people here select 7 days per move when creating game invitations. It is because the default setting is 7 days.
I wonder if someone who has the ability to create polls could pose a question to users of BK and ask what they think the default setting should be?
For example if it were to be 5 days, then everyone could still play only once a week without dipping into vacation time.
I personally prefer much shorter games, but that is another issue. People can choose to pick any time limit they want of course, but perhaps if new people (who are more likely to blindly pick the default settings) wound up with shorter time limits then their games would move along faster and they would enjoy BK more.
Same goes for tournament setting defaults. I'd like that to be even shorter if possible so that when someone carelessly forgets to change the time limit they don't wind up creating a tournament that lasts far longer than they wanted to.
happyjuggler0: I think each user should be able to set his/her own default time limits. I *hate* seven days/move as my default. I prefer Fischer settings of 3.1.5. I would also like to have 'Random' as the default for who moves first.
BK should give each user the ability to set the defaults up as s/he wants.
