[Suggestion] Some Extra Rules for Fast Horde Games

A player seeks 1/2+0 Horde as random color. I played against him, but he didn't play as black! I think it's unfair because, in Horde, there is big difference between white and black.

For example, in fast Horde games, white is much better because white has much more pieces (it means black has to make much more moves to win the game), and white is never checked (white can move much faster).

So I think there should be some extra rules in fast Horde games.
For example,
*Each players must play each side simultaneously.
*Horde games must be slower than 1 min.
(can't choose 1/2+0, 0+1, and 3/4+0)

What do you think?
If a player purposefully dodges playing from a specific side and you're not happy with that, then just leave (and block them if you prefer not to get paired up).
#1 What's wrong with 0+1? As long as there's at least some increment, a player should be able to avoid losing on time. I've played 0+1 Horde before and it's good, silly fun (although more comfortable for the horde).
