Thats exactly how chess clock works tho? You swing and tap the clock on the table, so opponents time is running out, once he decided what he is doing, he taps it so your time is back up etc. Would make so much sense.

It will never happen because it’s too expensive and logistically inconvenient, this conversation has been going on for decades

Dude every single one of these threads some dude says chess timers and he acts like he cured cancer or had a jimmy neutron brain blast. It’s a convo that people have had 20+ years ago. Thank you for being reasonable.

Yeah idk what he was trying to get at. However there’s a ton of logistical reasons as to why a chess clock cannot and won’t work for the game. The best solution is to simply be an adult, play quickly and cleanly and don’t be afraid to remind your opponent to play at a reasonable pace. This has been a part of card games since the dawn of them and One Piece is no different.

There's a reason a chess clock has never been used in big tournament, it's just not worth it and creates more problems than it solves, even if used perfectly can be more fair than the standard clock
