I normally play with friends only. This happens to be one of the better sites which not only avoids penalization by disconnects, but also has various nifty features. Otherwise I'd be playing in yahoo with a 2-5 minute clock. I use this site to challenge friends I talk to daily, and we all follow the same conditions. I'm a speed-chess player. If you would like to play me chess, please set aside a negotiable time-duration of roughly 5 to 30 minutes in total length. This of course is cannot be enforced; however, if you would like to enjoy a fast-paced game with me, then please consider these when you challenge me. I decline otherwise. PS. If not already done so, please edit time setting to 1 day per move.
