If I recall, from previous posts by John M,
They initially agreed to play 60moves per 2hours (or 40/120?) but ICC
wouldn't/couldn't allow that to happen, so they compromised at 2min/move.

Getting bogged down at move 6 is unfortunate, and was cleverly planned by the
Fischer personality.

Flog the Alekhine & Botvinnik (sp? sorry) personalities.
Get flogged by the Fischer and CMDefault personalities.
Sell a few thousand more copies in the USA.
That's why we can't get it in Australia.
