crosseyed: I'm still trying to get a feel for the Fischer Clock timed games. You have to check out the timing and bonus amounts. There are so many different ways to time a game. If the bonus is short and you and your opponent don't move fast, you can easily time out. IF the bonus is very long, then it really doesn't matter much. Same thing if the maximum is more than a couple of weeks. When the bonus is between a day or two and the maximum under 15 days, you can have the game move fairly fast and still not be pressured into moving daily. A bonus of 1 day 6 hours works good for me and will still allow slower moving players to enjoy a game without it affecting those players that like to move faster.
