Thanks partica, I updated your names on the master list.
I knew I could count on you to be the first one posting with names you knew, I really appreciate it!
I will spend a few minutes each day researching the names a bit more, trying to match up names by email address and other data, as well as identifying other speed names.

RIP Fastnwise, you sexy thang. How come the good, always die young?
On the positive side noone will ever have to hear- - I will be right back with my speed cape! - Game Over: You have ran out of time _________ says: F*** - Someone start a speed tourney - And... Speed kills
HOLD ON! That sucks, that was the best part of this whole thing! staying up late so you could come in first and win 3$ towards the 1000000$ t-shirt that noone wanted! And for some of us, are first wins were gained from when someone timed out And how about those records that got set?? 17sets!!! ya you know who you are! S*** that should be in the Guinness world record book!.....
Many of you may wonder, what this guy talking about?? But i know there are others, who remember the good old days, and the good old times!

Hello. Don't really wanna add more work about something I don't really care about but along time ago there was talk that speed games were messing up the numbers on the database...that what won in normal pente would be different in speed. Are there any plans to have speed be a different database. It would be very interesting to see the difference. Also are times kept in the database file?

Speed games ARE now kept "in a different database" as you say, that is really the whole point of getting rid of speed accounts. Well, I would say it instead as "Speed games and Normal games are stored differently in the database, so I can search for just speed games or just normal games if I want to."
Right now if you use the Games History tool, speed games and normal games are grouped together, but someday I will make it possible to search based on speed or not.
As far as times in the database, the time settings for the games are stored (20 minute game for example), but the time that each move was made is not.
