Hi!
The long awaitened Stratego clock is finally here:
The Bronstein clock.
Some explanations to those that are not familar with this clock system:
There are three clocks for every game:
The game clock (30 or 50 minutes):
This clock starts with 30 or 50 minutes and runs all the time the game is running. If it reaches zero and no player has won yet, the game will be a draw!
The player clocks (8 or 12 minutes):
Each player has his own clock starting with 8 or 12 minutes. If this clock reaches zero, the player looses immediatly.
This clock IS NOT allways running.
It is only running if the player is at turn AND after initial 4 or 6 seconds have been gone.
That means, if you make your move within the first 4 / 6 seconds, your clock will not start running.
Important: If you got disconnected, your time will THOUGH RUN!
I will add some further explanations later.
Games played with Bronstein clock active will count in the rating as usual.
Best regards
