Yes and I am very sorry about this.

If you want to see Tiger lose everything, just let it play 1+60.

It will use something like 2 seconds per move, and the opponent will probably
use one full minute.

My priority has been to improve the chess knowledge of the engine, and after
that no time was left to fix this Fischer time controls problem.
