There isn't anyone who is going to convince me to modify my time control aparatus (yeech) two weeks before my flight. It worked in Hong Kong, it worked in Paderborn, it worked in Jakarta, and it worked in Holland, I'm not going to break it for Paris. If someone wants to change the rules regarding time control, in such a way that people have to change their program, this should be specified at the time applications are accepted. Two weeks before the tournament is too soon to expect people to change their program. People have had a very long time to do the PGN stuff, and also, it's not like spitting a PGN file out at the end of the game is going to affect the game while it is in progress. I plan to set my program up to do 30 in 55 and 40 in 55 (I assume this is the time control again). I will probably not even display the clock on the screen. I won't change the time on the clock unless something very strange happens. bruce
