When having 7:16 (7 minutes and 16 seconds) left on clock you put back the internal clock to 7:00. A lot more weight saving is putting it at like 2 or 3 minutes for entire game then :) Note i did give you this advice after you played me but i saw you keep making this mistake every game you were in time trouble :) Some say i'm a fast operator, but in textmode no one is fast. So when we played and i had 8 minutes left on clock, i put my internal clock to 5 minutes. Diep like Ruffian also is using up all its time for a few moves... >But after all, ruffian played a good tournement with some nice wins against >the King, Diep and deep sjeng.
