Rory did this in Chicago and I thought that it was in interesting idea. Per his brochure: "Any Novice or Intermediate player using a clock in any event may request an extended delay time of 15 seconds." The biggest downsides that I can see are: 1. The clocks have memories and the match AFTER this one could easily use the wrong time delay. 2. There was an Intermediate who was forced to play with a clock for the 1st time ever and lost on time. She was not aware of the possibility of having the extended time and their was some bad feelings.
