[gsrgexus] 30 game blitz chess match

30 games of blitz chess, spread out over at most 3 days.  First to 15.5 points wins.  Each player has one "time out", which adjourns play for the day.  On day 2, adjournment can occur only after game 15, so at most 15 games are required on the third day.

Three day schedule inspired by single-elimination chess world cup (or women's chess championship).

Perhaps Chess960 to prevent games from repeating.

Tiebreak idea: advantage goes to the one who called timeout later.  If neither player called timeout, i.e., all 30 games completed on the first day ending 15-15, then there remains 2 days for some other tiebreaker procedure.
