Players that want a fast game

Hi All

It could be just me, but I get bit frustrated with slow games, like tonight fancied a quick game. Set it up, open challenge, someone picked it up within 15mins, then nothing not even a first turn. Why except a game then not play it for hours!! Would be better if you could specify in the set up that you would like a fast game not one that goes on for days or even weeks!!

Cheers Steve

Nice idea, but we are all from literally all 4 corners of the globe. There is a timezone issue. I would try to build a friends list of people that will play 4 or 5 turns in a evening.

Yeah, but perhaps your opponent knew that you get frustrated with slow games and they were trying to win the psychological battle with you first by not moving, Steve! :lol: Btw, my longest game so far lasted 7 weeks!

It is about time you had another go at getting into my camp ( :lol: ) - what do you fancy?

Steve - I live near Gatwick airport which is still the same time zone as Luton airport I believe. You can always PM me for a fast game & if I'm free that evening / weekend I'll happily play a quick game or two.
