With the current world championship possibly going to a tie break,with blitz and rapid games to decide the winner.I was thinking perhaps blitz and rapid games should be added to the actual world championship match format,for future matches.So the players play all types of chess game,to decide the championship.

I'd rather see them contest 960 games at slow time controls.

I hate the idea that the world championship should be reduced to a blitz contest. The current games may appear boring to you but they have been tension-filled slugfests.

Hi there notmtwain,i not saying the current world championship match is boring,in fact i'm enjoying it very much.but I just think adding blitz games would make it more of a test for the players involved.

There is already a bullet, and blitz world championship.  Deciding the world chess championship with blitz, and bullet cheapens the game, and the title.
