OT: Party's New Time Clock Speeding Up Games?

[astarck]

Seeing the post about slow games got me thinking. As we all know Party lowered the amount of time you have to think before you act, often making it hard for those who multi-table 8-10 tables. Seeing as how people are affected by this, how much do you think the games at party have sped up or how much lower is the average Party SNG time? Does anyone actually have any hard evidence to back this up? I'm wondering if for those 8-10'ers this will change your $/hr significantly.

I apologize if this has already been asked. If so, could someone point me in the right direction and lock this thread.

since ive switched back to party my avg time is 34min before it was 37 I think?

I'm at 37 right now, that's for 1000 chip games. Are you talking 34 for 800 or 1000 cg?

Come to think of it, wouldn't the 1000 chip games actually speed up more (3.5 mins for 1000 chip vs. 3 mins for 800 chip) because you have more chips/rounds and ultimately players who could potentially go into their timebanks?

The numbers above were loosely thrown around and I don't know if the games have sped up by 30 seconds or 10 minutes.
