The 2 minute server is interesting,  the short time control
has still allowed for very strong programs including Mogo.

I am considering to change the time control when I change
over officially to 5 minutes instead of 10.   5 minutes seems 
more than adequate  for the Monte Carlo programs which play
quite strongly even at 2 minutes per game.

What does everything think about that?

The server adds 1 second gift to each move silently,  in
order to allow for server overheads and network lags and
glitches.  This is pretty generous and actually adds a
minute or more the the length of the games.   I think this
should probably be cut to 1/2 second instead of a full 
second and I will make that change.
