Personally I prefer 10 minuets. That way I can play in about 3 games at once and not have to worry about running out of time like in 3 minuets. Plus by the time I've made my move my turn is usually up in another game. I'll do 3 min if there's no other games available, but anything longer then 10 to me is just not worth it. Why am I going to sit there for an hour just to wait for my opponent to make his move?

1 day, so I can live my life and not obsess about the game 24/7. I still often take my turns within a few minutes if the other person is active as well, but I don't need to stay glued to the phone. A 10 minute game that lasts 20 rounds where each side takes 5 minutes per turn would have you next to your phone for over 3 hours. No thanks. You do something else during hte game (like go to sleep, out to eat, out with friends, to a game, to a movie, etc.) and they can easily skip you 3 times and get a cheap win.
