I stopped following chess awhile ago but I believe they are still using this embarassingly poor format.

In terms of world championship matches, this was the only match in history where they ever used this format (Fischer's suggestion). Today they have an much more terrible format for the world championship. I don't know about less prestigious matches, though.
