You will then %JR%be asked for the time each way in minutes. This is the time allowed for %JL%each player to complete all of his or her moves for the game. The %JR%screen will then move to the clock and, when each player is ready, %JL%black should press a key to start white's clock. White can then make a %JR%move and press a key to start black's clock. The game then continues %JL%with each player making a move and then pressing a key to switch the %JR%clocks. Rules state that the clock must be switched with the same hand %JL%that made the move. The game ends with either a checkmate, a stalemate, %JR%a resignation, or one players clock running out, in which case the computer will tell you who has won. %JR%%H2%Note%H2% that if you only have half an hour for a game then the time each %JL%way should be set to 15mins. (not 30!) Turn the sound off at the panel %JR%for a quiet game. The clock isn't limited to chess --- try speed draughts, speed go or othello etc... %H2%Happy Gaming!%H2% %CO:B,12,60%%CO:C,12,48%%CO:D,12,36%%CO:E,12,24% Tim Dieppe. %CO:F,12,12%
