In Response To: Speed backgammon clock settings (Chiva Tafazzoli)

1 minute total bank time + no secs. per move (my favorite)

I don't like this. It's more of a dexterity contest than anything. It's like speed chess with hyped up settings where the moves barely matter, you just get your hands on the closest pieces and shove them around. (btw, I would own these settings)

What I would like is no time bank and a 15 second delay for eg.
