Also, with so many online players not used to the extra time to contemplate who knows what people would try in order to take advantage of it. And slow things up even further. Believe me. We've seen it...

Perhaps the players who only play on PokerRoom are not used to it, but most of the other major sites have this feature, and it really doesn't slow down the tournament all that much except perhaps just before the bubble.

The thing is, in a tournament with a lot of play, some decisions will be extremely difficult and will require perhaps two minutes to decide on the correct action. There are several players on this forum who have already expressed that they will not play in the GT or your other tournaments for the lack of a time bank.

Perhaps you could decrease the amount of time given by the regular timer slightly, and then give the time bank to compensate? Most decisions are very quick, like most preflop folds for example.
