i'll be honest, i thought for a long while that i was a dum dum for wishing to slow down my game. after all, there are so many things happening in the game! I have to control 3 fronts but I only have 1 time! If only I had 3 or even 5 times the time! But... it's cheating! True gamers play at fastest speed with 320 apm!

Except
this
habit
of
benefitting
"micro"
intensity
actually
stems
from
StarCraft
II
rts.
Furthermore,
fastest
speed
wasn't
always
the
custom:
Originally,
the
game
was
meant
to
be
played
at
half
the
speed.
It
is
the
devil
that
are
the
tourneys
that
said
that
"fastest
reaction
are
from
the
best
players,
and
if
we
aren't
the
fastest
players,
we
aren't
the
best!"
which
we,
foolishly,
interpreted
as
"if
we're
not
the
fastest,
we're
bad.
"
Therefore,
even
in
the
original
game,
the
game
was
meant
to
be
played
way
slower
than
people
play
it
nowadays.

This means one thing: People shouldn't be ashamed for playing the game at half the speed. Especially in mods like Future Wars, where there is a lot more to interpret. And if you *really* wish to think about skill measurement, I wouldn't worry about altering the game speed until silver rank, and I wouldn't worry about altering the game speed in 1v1s or versus bots. If you're really worried about dragging down the speed of big lobbies or in a duel, ask them. If you are being asked to slow down the game because a player cannot catch up, please, let them slow down. (I'd argue that there are exceptions, but they're rare and individual)

So, there isn't really much shame in slowing down the game if we are being slow with game management! Don't be me, don't be ashamed of slowing down the game: At worst, you have my support, and I played the game for 2 years.
