Keep the setting.

Suppose you are playing bullet 1|0.
At the end of the game, if you click 'new opponent', it will seek the same 1|0 kind, so far so good.
Now while seeking you see someone seeking for 30s|5 and you're like, why not, so you play 30s|5.
At the end of that game, if you click on new opponent, it will seek a game of 30s|5.
This is what bother me. If you try to create a new game, it will also set the time to 30 secs and the increment to 5 secs.
lichess does not have a setting for the kind of game you want to play, it's only always based on the previous game.
I'd like to suggest that when we create a game, a setting is stored about the time control, the kind of game, and when we accept challenge from people, it does not update that setting, meaning when you click on new opponent at the end, you get a game created with your setting, not the one you just accepted.
If this change isn't doable for backward compatibility reasons, then maybe at the end of a game, display a new button to get that behavior.
