Time controls on ICC are of the form "5 12", where in this case 5 means 5 minutes of base time, and 12 means 12 seconds of increment. So normal coffeehouse blitz is "5 0", meaning 5 seconds base and no increment. There is a concept called "etime", which is defined as base + (2/3)*inc. Bullet is any game with etime < 3 Blitz is any game with etime >= 3 and etime < 15 So 2 0 and 2 1 are bullet and 2 2 and 3 0 are blitz, etc. >I think humans who use computer programs to help them can have better results >then computer programs without help or humans without help but I see >no human in the first 9 best in standard. >I do not understand this. I don't know either, but it's always been like this. bruce
