Traditional methods

Rapid and Blitz
The simplest way to allocate time. Each player is given one period in which they must make all moves. As with other methods, the most commonly-used times are pre-programmed in the DGT Clock, but you can manually set your own time within one second.

1 Period + Guillotine
The first period is used to play a predetermined number of moves. The second period, the Guillotine, is used to finish the game.

2 Periods + Guillotine
For a less-frantic game, it is possible to play a game with two periods before the Guillotine.

Repeated 2nd time period
A quiet end to a game also has its advantages. The simple traditional clock gives the players repeated one-hour periods to complete a predetermined number of moves.
