I recommend to never use Absolute time control - it means that you have to finish entire game in N seconds, its hard to not timeout
in byo-yomi or simple time control you have N seconds in each move, it fully regenerates after each move

45s absolute should be illegal :joy:

lol. I certainly wouldn’t play it, but to each their own

Byo-yomi or Fischer are both great time controls with pros and cons (and I understand Absolute time has a dedicated fanbase, so to each their own), but isn’t there some bug with Simple time that means you should just use Fischer with the same increment as the cap? am I remembering that right?
