The invites get taken very quickly, so you've got to be the fast on the draw. I don't do invites - I've my hands full with tournaments and clan games (a good enough reason to subscribe BTW!)

People in clans get as many games as they can handle without a problem.

Is there any expectation or tradition established here that open invite games be played quickly?

I can play up to 10,000 games at a time. Could your clan offer me that?

They will be set up with the timebank the player wishes. Games are usually played slowly here.

Many open invites are by people who are new to the site, and some of them haven't really understood the nature of correspondence chess and expect to play fast games. But I have seen open invites with move timeouts of 21 days, too.
