Hi Will,

still I would like to see longer time controls - in my opinion last CCT solution
with two weekends was quite fine. Why change that ?

Most I would like something like 120/10 or 90/10... But I think there won't be
much supporters to that time control... sigh...

correct, that was something clearly pointed out after CCT4... On the other hand
with that rule many pro's won't participate then... but... who cares ?
