SpeedGammon Time Settings for 9 point matches?

In Response To: SpeedGammon Time Settings for 9 point matches? (Chiva Tafazzoli)

Since typical speed gammon controls are for a 5 pt match and are 2 min/10 sec we can use simple math to get an idea of how much delay to use.

5 x 1.8 = 9, 2 x 1.8 = 3.6

But I agree with Stick, lets round down since it is supposed to be SPEED gammon

3 min/10 sec is fine.

I'll also note that my experience (someone certainly could get stats from somewhere I'd think) is that an average 9 pt match has less than 1.8 times as many games played as an average 5 pt match.

My strong opinion is that anything more than 3/10 for a 9 pt match is not following the spirit of speed gammon.
