The rules are that you can report the time remaining to your program, not
arbitrarily modify the alotment of time to lead the game. If Ruy-López thought
that he had more time because the operator was too slow in entering the moves,
or because he forgot to press the clock for a long time, it is legal to update
the internal clock.

By the way, I am Ruy-López's programmer and I still have no idea of what
happened because the operator is not sending any mails.
