He played moves in just 2 min / move while GetClub was thinking 30 min / move....

I would think there has to be, but I never hear anything about it. Also, it seems that playing with computers on-line would be the best way to conduct such a tournament rather than the clunky way with the chess boards and the clocks.

Advance Level thinks for 30 min/ move So it is very difficult for me
