Subject: Allow Time Control In Milliseconds

Author: Graham Laight

Date: 07:34:22 12/21/01

All my chess computers/programs only allow you to set time control per move to
the nearest second. Even with "permanant brain" (where did THAT expression come
from?) off, this still makes them too strong for an enjoyable game of chess.

A nice simple idea - why not allow the player to specify the time in
milliseconds?  We could then level down the play by throttling off almost all of
the computer's thinking time. I'm sure that they'd be much more fun to play
against then.
