As I was watching a replay the other day I thought to myself, "Why won't this thing go any faster???." So Here I am with a suggestion.

If this has been suggested before then excuse me and you can delete the thread.

My suggestion is to create an option so that the viewer can be sped up. So if I wanted to watch the game but for it to take maybe half the time...I could. I'm not sure how difficult this would be, but I know MANY people would love to have the feature as it would cut down the time it takes to replay the game. Obviously I'm NOT talking about the actual games, just replays. Also, the wait between quarters and half time should be done away with during replays in my opinion. Again, maybe at least there could be an option for this.

Is this a good idea? I think it would allow more people to really analyze replays of matches because it would save so much time. I know there is a fast forward option to take you to any part of the game, and I use it to skip the quarter and half breaks, BUT I would really enjoy watching a replay in double/triple time if possible. So it's a different version of the fast forward I guess you could say.

Anyway....let me know what you guys think!

Decent suggestion. Although you could use PBP and read as fast as you can:)

True, but I figure something like this shouldn't be that difficult to implement and would be nice...especially when watching a game for the first time. Allows the suspense to still be there while speeding up the process.

I just smell a bug that speeds up the viewer during live broadcast:) That is something I would like to avoid at all costs.

I think what you are smelling is coming from the bathroom...lol

BUT just like all bugs, you just have to squish them...

Certainly all things implemented into the game may have their bugs in the beginning...but i guess I forgot your role here in the suggestions forums...
