BULLET

***** BULLET *****

A game wih a time control of less than 3 minutes is "bullet" chess.
Bullet is one of the rating categories in "finger".

The exact boundary between "bullet" and "blitz" is defined by
"etime < 3".  etime is the time + 2/3 increment.  So 3 0 is blitz.
2 0 is bullet.  2 1 is bullet.  2 2 is blitz.  0 4 is bullet.  Etc.
Bullet time control games count towards your bullet rating, not your
blitz rating.  Games played in the 1-minute pool count towards the
1-minute rating, not the bullet rating.

- Do "who B" to list players by bullet rating.
- Do "who b" to list players by blitz rating.
- The best list shows bullet, blitz, standard and 5-minute.
- "bullet" can be used in formulas.  "blitz" in your formula will
exclude "bullet" challenges.

Four-time world 1 0 champion Hawkeye(GM) recommends using an
optical mouse with a fast sampling rate, and cautions against playing
so much that your wrist hurts.
