what is the difference between the time settings? For example: what does 15/10, 5/2 or 2/1 mean? I understand 10 mins. and 5 mins.

I haven't played these time settings myself but I beleive 15/10 means you get 15 mins. for the game and 10 seconds gets ADDED to your clock each time you make a move. 5 mins. for game and 2 seconds added, etc.

Bonus time has an effect on which ratings group the game is rated under. See here for more information:
