Let’s wait a few weeks and then we’ll have a look at stats on game duration.

3 seconds can really be tough sometimes, buy I’ve played a few games and some people still manage to bank time. And it’s blitz, it’s not about reading, it’s about automatisms and good intuition.
But now the blitz increment has been increased to 5 seconds and I think that is good and makes it more accessible. 7 seconds can really add up, especially on a 19x19 board. I wouldn’t consider it blitz anymore.

I set up a couple of custom game types when I first joined.
With some variations at times to accommodate tournament practice game set-ups, I have felt no reason to fiddle with them.
I would only get grumpy if the option vanished (and send Grumpy to sort it out…)
