I realized in my sleep that 120+90 after move 40, as much as 6 hours will be
used. then 8 hours on move 80, 10 on move 120.
90+45 does allow the game to be played up to 4 hours after move 40 however,
mistakes are possible due to lack of time.
Mabye 60+90 could be used. so that the programs could have enough time to
think. When the original 60 minutes are gone. I'll compare the 4 time controls.
Time Control Moves Hours
40/120 40 4
80 8
120 12
120+90 40 6
80 8
120 10
90+45 40 4
80 5
120 6 (too fast!)
60+90 40 4
80 6
120 8
My plan is simple: To shorten the length of the game in case the position is a
draw and a game goes on for 150+ moves or more!
I believe the 90+45 and 60+90 time control features could be used. or mabye
something in-between those 2. I hope my idea is considered.
