I would like to see Armageddon as an option on this site too.

I think the introduction as a possible tie-breaker in the world championship has brought up an interest.
Of course it wasn't needed as Carlsen won at the Rapid level with 2 wins and 2 draws.

I too would love to see an option to play Armageddon chess on Chess.com, I think that it would be brilliant. It would also give the possibility for Chess.com to fine tune the time controls for Armageddon chess so that it was fair and even, with equal likelihood for each side to win.

I came to the forums to see if there was any discussion on tiebreakers for the daily tournaments. This is one of my suggestions to fix the issue (seemingly only to me) of all tied players going through to the next round if the one tiebreaker does not resolve a tie. Armageddon is typically a tiebreaker ploy and not typically a choice of time controls.

I'd like to see (particularly for tiebreaker purposes) a daily Armageddon system where a clock is constantly running (HOUR;MINUTES;SECONDS), where the game might typically be finished in two or three days and all ties resolved much cleaner and quicker.
