Okay, this is something I've been thinking of doing for quite a while now. Basically, the current "end of page 2" guideline for match length is a holdover from the original Arena way back on Toho Kingdom. It worked fine for that, because only two attacks were made in each post (one connecting and one left up to the opponent to decide the outcome of), so going two full pages and onto the third wasn't a big deal. But under the current system, each post has a total of five attacks (three connecting and one left for the opponent to decide, and one for the opponent landing a hit). It takes a lot more effort to make a post here than it did under the original system, and because of that matches have a tendency to drag on a long time since people tend to take a while to respond (assuming one player posts per day, a match takes about a month). Also, there are WAY more hits being exchanged, and as such monsters are often beat up beyond reasonable levels by the time a match ends here.
So what I'm asking is, would you guys be up for shortening the length of matches so that they end around the beginning of the second page (15-18 posts)?
