Typically if you look at the games on my website I use longer time controls.
It is much more rare for me to play a tourney at these time controls.
I choose 5 3 as it seems to be the most popular internet time control plus with
moving I wasn't happy about starting a long time control tourney first.
As I said in my first post on this tourney, at the conclusion of 5 3 I will run
a 40/40 and as I repeated yesterday I think it will be 10 rounds.

Also any number of things are of interest, there are some computer users that
only use there programs at blitz time controls. And to be honest I run my
tourneys for the sole enjoyment of myself alone, I post here simply to allow
others if they are interested to comment and or share knowledge. I was going to
stop posting the scores of this current 5 3 as it seems to be of little interest
to others at the present time, although for myself it has interest as I like to
compare blitz results to standard to see if there are any relationships.
