Could you set up the time controls so people can play 5 minute games? Sppeed chess can be fun and a 5 or 10 minunte game can be fun. Could you alter the time controls to allow games where the timeout can be defined in minutes please? This could give rise to speed chess tournaments etc.

Thanks

Not a good idea.
This is a correspondence chess site.
I vote no.

The site interface isn't set up to handle this.

Try uchess.com

wrong site, goto www.uchess.com and you can play as many fast games as you want.

If a one day time out is still too long for you, you are really on the wrong kind of site.

I recommend www.chessclub.com or www.freechess.org for blitz chess.
