Report history
We discussed the possibility of everybody clicking "I'm ready" and publisher decided that to be a slow-down for the game
2. It is also unconventional that it is such a LONG timer (even for a no-time-limit game.) Even for turn-based games, I have not seen the timer number be anywhere near this high (this game is using countdown from 500 or so!)
Typically I’ve seen it more like 5 or 10 or 30.
3. Sometimes lately these are options a user can set when creating a table, where someone can opt which they want:
A. Auto advance with a timer
B. Do not auto-advance (manually pass/continue)
See king of tokyo for an example.
It should be 5
It really detracts from the game to not see what the word was or if we got it. Should not have to rely on the chat or logs to do ao
(Or if you really are concerned that 5 seconds between rounds is too long, then you have to require everyone at the table to press the button, not just a single person.)
So 5 second is too short to be able to have these interesting discussions
