Hello! Does anyone know, what was time control in these games (1984, '85, '86, '87, '90), with all adjournments and so on.

And how many games they were required to play? I mean, if someone reached 12,5 in game 20, was it reqired to play remaining 4 games?

Thanks for answers!

In 1990 they played 150 minutes for the first 40 moves and then 1 hour for every 16 moves.

I'm interested in that topic too! Thanks for opening it!

@Sred, was it connected? I mean, in one day?

@MSC157: No, they had adjourned games, playing time was 6 hours per day. Game 16, for example, was adjourned twice and ended after 102 moves.

Forgot to mention: if one of the players had reached 12.5 points before game 24, the remaining games would have been abandoned.

I don't know about the rules in 1984-87.

Today it's 120|0 for 40 moves, 60|0 for 20 moves and 30|15 (or is it 15|30?) for the rest. I don't know how was it in the past...

2 hours and a half for the first 40 moves

But now, If I'm not mistaken, I think it is just 2 hours per 40 moves.
