I found an old thread asking for longer tournament time control options, which was responded to that very long open tournaments are impractical (to which I agree). However, why can't private tournaments be set up with time controls longer than 7+2? Private tournaments for coaches and clubs as well as groups of friends have none of the logistics limitations that open ones do.
Private tournaments should also be schedulable; whoever doesn't show up after a certain time will forfeit (size of tournament scaling automatically to however many are present at start time).
Also concerning tournaments: A round robin and double round robin tournament mode for small groups would be great, along with the ability to not set a max duration. These could have a warning that they will take a long time for large tournaments or with long time controls, which the user setting it up (and those participating) will be aware of in the case of a private tournament.
Yes this is kind of a wish-list type post, I hope some of these things are possible, but either way am thankful for all the effort that goes into this site, Cheers.
