While playing a 5+0 Atomic tournament, I was paired against a much lower rated player. It was then I had the idea that I would have liked the possibility to have this new feature implemented.
In the same optional way as the Berserk, why don't we introduce the possibility to perform Berserk multiple times? Each time the time would be cut in half and it would yield an additional point in case of a win.
Before discarding this idea immediately, please think about 2 things:
1) this would render the tournaments even more exciting, since in the last few games a lot of players would "gamble" in order to have a last chance to catch up (thus the winner would remain even more undetermined until the very end)
2) additional constraints and rules could be placed in order to "not abuse" of this feature. Examples might be that only up to 3 consecutive berserks can be performed and/or that this option becomes available only during the last 5/10 minutes of the tournament.
I am eager to know what you think of this: all positive and negative comments are welcome (but please keep them constructive and not limited to "yes no", since I am genuinely curious)
