In Response To: A New Argument for Clocks (Phil Simborg)

I fully understand your argument. It is the one of the main reasons I like playing with the clock. I don't have to worry that someone gets annoyed with me thinking 10 minutes about a move, since it is my time and I'll have to compensate later in the match. Being relieved of that worry makes playing more fun. I know not every mind works like that, but mine does. The rule that you have to play at "reasonable pace" is just too vague.
