Clock experiment at Las Vegas BG Club

The Las Vegas BG Club has started a clock experiment for the next three months. I and three others who are experienced with clocks will be playing all of our matches with clocks, using the usual 2/12 time control. We're collecting data such as how long the match is (duration & number of games) and time remaining on the clock at the end of the match.

The clocks will be non-punitive during this trial period. If somebody times out, they'll just keep on playing and hitting the clock.

I played four matches tonight (all clocked), and there were probably a total of 10 clocked matches. No problems, no complaints, nobody timed out, although the clocks haven't yet hit any of the slowpokes yet.

We don't know what we're going to do after the experiment ends.
