OK, that makes sense, and is consistent with my own observations. So, we've found a bug: Joker80 doesn't do Game/time very well, such as Game/15.

My plan, for the 2010 Schoolbook tournament, is to have the games be played at a time control of 30 seconds per move (1 move in 30 seconds), so that the engines that can't handle tournament time controls (ChessV 0.9.0, Zillions if they ever give me permission, etc.) will be on an even playing field with the engines that can't handle tournament time controls.

I chose Game/15 because this is the time control used at an old chess club where I used to play chess.
