Well, i don't understand why you didn't 'pick' on this before the game. The timecontrol was annonced and explained here several days before the game. To start this after the game just seems like 'bad loser' attitude. I think you have to know a little about the GM in question before decide if this timecontrol is bad for him. The IM who commented on the last game on chess.fm was convinced that this timecontrol saved the draw for the GM. And the game with the rook offer, the critical move was at move 57 and 58, how much time do you think he could have had with normal timecontrol where it is only 2-3 moves to next 'new' time. Now he had 9:06 and 10:24. Odd Gunnar
