As mentioned the Leagues running on ICC and FICS have regular slow games, minimal disconnection and generally ( but not always ) are not blitzed.

Also see http://sites.google.com/site/chessmatcheshq/ which allows contacts for slow games.

I play slow chess on ICC in both the league and the standard organised tournaments which vary from 17 5 to 60 0, and again generally not blitzed.

I've never lost a connection or been dropped from a 90 or 120-minute game with chess.com. Maximilian was once disconnected three times during a tournament game we were playing, and he was immediately reconnected and we finished the game without any trouble. He could better explain how this happened than I could, but he was placed back in the same game when he was reconnected. We never missed a beat.
