    Title says it all. Time limits are a necessary but not fun mechanic. Nobody enjoys losing to a surprise time out, they just feel cheated. There is an audio indicator but it does not help the hearing impaired. Timer should flash red sometimes at 2:30 minutes left and frequently at 1:00 left. Easy fix, more fair, no downside.

    A visual alert for the the 2.5 minute timer would be nice too.

    bumping this because its a legit suggestion that nobody disagrees with, and so was going to get bumped off the page by more controversial arguments

    This thread needs more controversy!...

    A red timer discriminates against the colour blind. It should be a configurable colour!

    Having many configurations / options discriminates against the mentally challenged. It should just be a blinking light, regardless of color!

    If you are playing with known powerful items (like Rotting Club) you shouldn't be able to see the timer at all!
