[Bug?] Time warning in bullet games

I agree. 3 Seconds would be fine. Just some "Bing" sound reminding me.
Additional to the robot woman warning me at 10sec.
I am not very good at bullet, but still enjoy to play 1/2+3. I repeatedly loose cause the warning on 10 seconds I tend to forget after a few moves. So I speed up a bit when warned but constantly get slower again, eventually running out of time after a some moves. Which leaves me surprised cause I kind of forgot I was under time pressure... I would need the constant reminder saying "mooove dude!". Elderly cats can be kind of... you know, senile.
Please add a constant reminder when the time is low, preferably at 5 seconds. One that shouts at you every move the time is low. No matter if you were warned before.
Not only _once_ when you first hit the 10 seconds. This is no help for games with increment cause you hit time trouble several times in a game, and leave the "panic mode" in the meanwhile, expecting a warning again.
But it does not happen.
I tried hard to get used to it, but I keep losing because of this.
I need a beep at the beginning of the move when time is below 5.
That is what I was used to, and I am to senile to change.
