How to combat the copying scheme with 30 second increments.
Imagine that I realise early on that my moves are being copied by a weaker player.
Suppose If I am 5 seconds up and I have a choice of 2 equally valid moves.
I will wait until the copier moves, then make the alternative move on my board.
I might be down to 30 seconds per move with no time in hand by the time he blinks first but if so my team mate will have a huge time advantage to compensate for my time trouble.
