So a 2/1 Fischer game would be Bullet, but a 2/2 would be Blitz. >Is that understandable? > >jm Yes, I got it! (120 + 1*40 = 160 sec < 3 min ; 120 + 2*40 = 200 sec > 3 min) My mistake was, that I thought of the German term "Blitz". In Germany anything less than 10 min is blitz (so "bullet" would be blitz either in German).I simply haven´t tried any time setting less than 10 min/game yet. mfg, Lars Nonnenberg
