Long (tournament) games
Hom e

Long ga m e

In tournament chess you are required to execute a certain number of moves in a given
time. Usually the game has a number of phases, e.g., two hours for the first 40 moves,
one hour for the next 20, and 30 minutes for the rest of the game (a very common
tournament control).

You can use Long ga m e to adjust the time allocations or number of moves per
phase. You can also select one of the common levels predefined in the dialog box
(“Defaults”).
If you set the time of the second and third time controls to zero, they are ignored as
the first time control is always used.
Overstepping each of these time controls means you lose the game. If you use less
than the specified time in any phase, it is added to the next phase.
