Steve,
as much as I hate this:
the rule is the rule.
I personally don't want any more rule changes now.
so the rule pages says 3 min. each player has up to 3 min. to move per turn.

if two players agree ahead of time, ~!!and have the ability!!~ then they can
lower that time.

| (...) It's recommended. We didn't want to put in a hardset rule that said "be under three minutes exactly" but we did want to discourage someone who would take 29 minutes or whatever to execute one move.
