Since Komodo was only averaging 16 plies for the first five moves, I'm guessing it was playing game in one minute? In our match with Izoria Komodo was getting around 32 plies on the first few moves. The difference between 32 plies and 16 plies is something like the difference between Magnus Carlsen and a 1500 player. Even if you are busy, surely you can give Komodo 3 min plus 1 sec increment at least.
I wish I had 3 minutes at my disposal.
I understand this hurts Komodo, but I am also much better the longer the TC.
Btw., Izoria won a game, at last, congratulations to all the human race.
I played one more with black and c2/g2, seems even easier, again with my quick and dirty conditions:

Sorry, I can not resist, when Komodo plays a match, I have to try this out too.
