In Response To: Other Doubles Semifinal Cube Action -- OTB (neilkaz)

clocked at a not unreasonable 3min+15 sec

I think the U.S. clock rules on Chicago Point currently call for 2.5min+18sec for doubles, but I agree your parameters or even 3 min + 18 sec is not unreasonable for doubles.

A lot of people do play doubles for the social and learning aspects but when long matches in side events intrude on a player's ability to stay fresh in the main then it is a problem.

Another rule for when I am elected President:

All matches at all tournaments, whether world championship, national, regional or local club, will be clocked.
