Basically...

If your using a chessbase program such as fritz with YaY then 'no', your program will only play whatever timer you have set in Fritz.

If you are using polyglot then 'yes', it will play whatever timer the Yahoo table is set to.

No, chessbase don't have such "auto-adjust timer" feature.The combination of winboard with polyglot does.

Cheers,

Using engines to cheat:
- It is not ethical,
- It is useless, nothing is gained (how can one be proud of a score earn with dishonesty?)
- You will be baned, sooner or later,
- It gives us (the true chess engine players) a bad reputation.
