In Response To: Clock Rules - Tournament schedules, proposal (Paul Baraz)

You said you wanted to alternate opening rolls to reduce the luck factor. And now you say you are fine with Phil's suggestion of letting losing player roll first. But does that lower the luck factor or increase it? It will be the better player who is more likely to be in front.
