In Response To: Stick was right (Phil Simborg)

Years ago, when there were no clocks, it was acceptable to play very, very slow and hold up the tournament for hours

That was never acceptable. Not as long as I've been playing.

no one knows what "too long" means when you don't use a clock.

If you're holding up a clockless tournament today, you're taking too long. If you're not, you're not. That hasn't changed from "years ago."

For you to tell me I have no right to those feelings just because you don't I believe is unfair and unjustified.

Please. Steve didn't tell you anything like that.
