We have folks who don't like to think ahead. We start the timer as soon as someone ends their turn. That person has 50 seconds to roll the dice... put them in...
You would think 50 seconds is crazy. We have a guy in the group who had three time penalties last week at 50 seconds!!! Now. robert and I proved last night...
From: Joe ... Not crazy, but plenty of time, at least twice of what you need. ... I've had a player like that. If he played without any timer, he could almost ...

From: Joe ... The G8 timer is the best timer available for any game that requires timing. I only use it for Das Motorsportspiel, but it has so many features...
As a caveat, the G8 timers can be rather fragile. I have 3 and all of them have some of the LCD display unreadable. I can still use it for DTM, though. Paul...
From: Joe ... As I wrote before we count from the time the previous player finishes his turn. It's easy with the G8 timer, as touching the button starts the...
... I was going to use my G8 timer for the yearly tournament at Viking-Con (http://www.viking-con.dk), but I've just checked it and I have the same problem as...

Wow, that DGT Cube looks fantastic! But, double wow, $50 is a lot of money for a cool timer (unless one is a serious chess player, I suppose). -Aaron...

I have not played for ages - nearly sold my set, but my phone has a decent timer on it. Check yours... ... From: larsine To: Motorsportspiel@yahoogroups.com ...
... The problem with a phone is that it cannot stand the rough handling of brute hands during a frantic race! The best timer is still the G8, where a bash on...
We use a chess timer. I have this one: http://www.chess.com/eq/chess+clocks/saitek-chess-game-clock-ii2. It doesn't look like they make it anymore, but this...
