coan.net: I really do hope the next version of BK will have a time setting that allows both the Fisher clock and vacation time. I'd switch all my tournaments over to that - and it would be my preferred time setting. I'd probably wouldn't even play anything else.

The rationale? I like to play games with an average fast pace. But I don't want to have to eat (or have my opponents eat) from their vacation days if I (or they) are away for a couple of days. Hence I never create (or play) games or tournaments with a time limit less than 5 days/move, for no other reason than that I sometimes need them. Fisher clock would be ideal for me, except that currently, Fisher clock means no vacation time. But most years, I will be on vacation for 3 weeks - I need to be able to take vacation. Hence my games (and tournaments) progress much slower than I like, but picking any of the other options BK offers risks me having to time out, or take vacation. And that's something people don't like.

My preferred pace? 168 hours initial time, 36 hours added to the clock at each move, 168 max time (I think that's 7/1.12/7 in BK notation), no weekends, auto-vacation. That gives an average pace of about 2 moves each three days while still allowing to be away for a few days without vacation penalty, and the longer vacation. No weekend nonsense (but people who aren't able or willing to play on a weekend can still cope).
