Correct me if I am wrong but isn't that what happens on all other board games here? If someone moves immediately after you, on a 1 day game, you risk timing out within 24h of your own move...
All you'd have to do was to avoid 1 or 2 day games if you think the timing was to tight... I understand why it was set like this when The Very First Run was just a test case and things needed to go smooth for people to adjust the new reality... but now, it seems that most people are on track already and they just want the possibility to play fast games just like it happens on every other board game at BK. And besides, most people won't even notice much of a difference, because most games will still take about a day to be moved, with people playing from all over the world :)
But then again, I don't play Ponds (though I'm counting on doing it someday).
