In Response To: Two Ideas to Encourage Clock Play (and related thoughts) (Colin Owen)

While I happen to be in the camp that would like to see a small increase in clock reserve times (e.g 2 min/pt + 2 min) I don't agree that the discomfort of first timers is due to the clock settings. First timers will feel rushed regardless of the settings until they have played a few matches and realize that they have plenty of time (usually) as long as they don't have to shake the dice for 10 seconds.

In Clocks Optional situations, I have often suggested to hesitant players that we could play without penalty, or even that if at any time they change their mind we can put away the clock.
