Now I see!

First of all the second time control is not meant to function as the time for
the rest of the game, so the "0 moves" makes no sense. It also explains why you
get a crash because the internal calulation tries to divide through zero which
is not allowed.

I will check this with Lex how to solve this one, in the meantime the mystery is
solved.

My best,

Ed
