Can you use it without setting a time limit? I just want to keep score and the game could go longer than 18 minutes.

Yes, you can play without a clock and score up to 99 points. Great item. it is the first option FREE. Click on FREE and no clock but all other features.

Yes "FREE" setting you just keep score... The timed games just gives you the count down and gets the kids moving quickly at the end. The kids love it and the ref button stops any fighting... we all agree that if someone calls foul we just hit the foul button and whatever they say goes.

You need to recharge the scoreboard prior to usage like for 24 hours for it to last for an entire tournament, if not, the unit will only last a few hours.

2 people that already know the rules, long versión takes 45 min to an hour... Not knowing the rules can take you two hours there is so many rules but definitely worth learning them and playing it...

There is an option in the settings menu to have the player play from where it left off or to start from the beginning. It's up to you.

Yes, you can set it for longer. Each little tab is for 15 mins., so if you push down 4 in a row, you have one hour, 8 two hours, etc..

The game doesnt really change as you still just have 2 teams. The only issue is if people arent paying attention and ready to go when their turn comes up, it can bog the game down a little. Basically add about half an hour to game time you normally would go for

It will usually take longer the first game (like more than 3), but after a few games, the time will get closer to 2 hours.DaveBoardgames4us

You can do count-down or count-up. If you want to do count-down, specify the duration of time (ex. 15 min) and push START. If you want to do count-up, then set the time to zero and push START.

Hi, We used a sand dial timer from another game. I ordered buzzers separately. I ordered these, which are really fun: Learning Resources Answer Buzzers

I believe you can do that, but I only used for single count-up timer. Sorry for not being able to give you a definite answer.

The game only requires you to tally up the score at the end of the game, after all the game moves were completed. This is more convenient to do in writing, but there's nothing during the game that needs to be "remembered" for later, and is one of the brilliant points of the game in my opinion. The game provides notes to write on so you can write on them at first.In any case, I found several nice mobile apps that allowed doing this without writing at all if you have nothing to write with but do have a smartphone/tablet.

Each game you decide as a group how many points will be considered a win. We went to 50 points and the game took about 30-45 min. Really fun game!!!

This clock has blitz and 'tournament'. In tournament mode you can set time plus delay per move (for example 2 hours plus 5 seconds per move), and you can set up to three time phases (for example first 40 moves, next 20 moves, remainder of moves). The delay is just that - if you set it to 5 seconds then the clock waits for 5 seconds at the start of the move before starting to count down. I believe that true Fischer mode ADDS time at the start of each move (so you can gain time by moving fast). If that is what you want then I think their competition game clock pro includes that, as well as Bronstein (which adds time at the end of the move).

If you play continuously it will run out in a few hours. The only way I can charge it is to plug it into the computer. The screen has no backlight so its hard to look at to play anyways.

Yes you can create a set time and save it and use it now and at later date. You can also clear the settings easily
