Retaining the timecontrol does provide some sort of comparison with Gulko's performance albeit the program lineup has changed slightly. The limited starting fee and result oriented bonus system probably doesn't encourage a GM to play for several hours. There could have been a few extra game given the space in the schedule. But Smirin may have other commitments. Regards, Mogens
