Don't worry it is not that bad. I know some programs are still using this system
(taking the time left to play the game and dividing it by 30 to get the "target
time" for the next move).
What Chess Tiger does is to look at the current position, try to guess the
number of moves left, and dividing the time left by this guessed number.
In the endgame it is close to time_left/30 anyway.
