"...good rule for encouraging clock use in the intermediate division, but seems a bit too generous for the open."
Absolutely.
If newbies choose to bypass the shallower waters of intermediate or beginner flights and jump in at the deep end...
How many new tournament players are actually lost (for good) because of the fear of clocks or because of an actual time out? I guess very few. To reduce this the USBGF advocate more generous TC for events other than the main. Or Clock Option rather than Preference or Mandatory.
And for those that want their match to be assessed for BMAB purposes, how would a 15 min(+) reserve for a 7 point match, for example, be taken into account?
