8. FAQ
- What do the time controls mean?
The time controls tell you how much time you have for each game. For example, G30;D0 means game in 30 minutes
with a 0-second delay with each move. This means you get 30 minutes, your opponent gets 30 minutes, and at each move
0 seconds are delay to your clock
- How many games/rounds?
The 5SS before the time control means there are 5 rounds or 5 games a player can play in the tournament. The tournaments are never elimination, so win or lose you can stay in the tournament. 9. CONTACT US
