But there is a point to it, in the end... a person could very quickly and accurately see on average how quickly a person responds to their turn and then could roughly anticipate when their turn would likely occur next. This is the point I am trying to make. If you take very little time in one game ...

Because it does not mean anything.

How doesn't it "not mean anything"? Your average time taken per round 'means' exactly what it states.

Again, what are the negatives for simply displaying your average time taken per round? You seem to think that by doing so would be bad for the game and yet I ...

But here is the thing. If you look at my example from before. Let's say you play at 8pm eastern US and I play at 9pm eastern US. I will only take 1 hour before my turns are up, you will take 23 hours. However, if you are playing your other neighbor who takes his turns at 7pm eastern US, then you ...

In a nutshell, there would be too much variance due to outside factors that ...

There is a big problem with this idea. You do not know when people check their games. You could be playing the guy next door to you, but if you are playing a 2 player game, and he checks his games at 8 pm and you at 9 pm, there will be a 23 hour gap between turns. Does this mean that the player is ...

Well, you could just lump that into their "Gameplay" rating and leave either a "quick" or "slow" tag... Look for those tags as well when viewing other peoples ratings.

But some players don't rank and even if you do, you may not attach those tags, and irregardless, it doesn't give a true ...

Is it possible to rate and rank a person's time per round they take and attach that to their profile?

A person get's 24 hours to take a turn and you could gauge how long a person takes for their turn and rank that for others to see.

You could rank the time rankings a variety of ways... into 3 ...
