I'm going to suggest to you that you go play your popular slow blitz and go do whatever tf else you do, basso. You're clearly turned off by fast time controls and that's fine just keep it to yourself. Most players are obviously interested in other things hence the post.

This is known as Delay btw, popular in USCF / USA.

I didn't know that, just looked it up, looks interesting - just hope lichess can enable all time controls possible at this point

> Hello, I think a fun time control could be 1sec/move where if you fail to move a piece in one second you lose. The time not used in each second is not added like it is added in 0sec+1 or 3min+2. A separate leaderboard for this new time control could be awesome imo.

u can go to custom game and play 0+1 to play 1 second per move, but it would be pretty hard to players to play a move for every second consistently without timing out. 0+1 makes it so that the time accumulates from the time of the previous moves.

@bromoises you failed to grasp the essence of "leaderboard"...it includes the word leader, we can get there by becoming one of the bests in the field....what will be the point of it,when 100s of leaderboards will be created?
Ultrabullet is already non-chess type that only depends on speed. There isn't need to any other time control which is non-chess type.
