Hello Chris,

Just a suggestion Chris, 2 hrs is good, and I like to see 40 moves/90min (lets
see time management handling and creativity) + 40 moves/25min (see speed chess)
+ rest 5 minutes (see efficiency). Much better if fixed different kinds of
opening and reversed color, but not necessarily nunn test positions.
I don't need hundreds of games I just want to examine moves/positons in games on
a slower time control on a different openings.

Regards,
Dinan
