WhiteTower: suppose your opponent has a big advantage and very probably will win this game .. he has to go away for 3 weeks though and would time out .. he offers a draw ... would you accept the draw ?

i would .. or i maybe even would resign the game as it would be fair ... because the problem is on his side though .. a draw would be fair as well

accepting such a draw is just fairplay

i once asked thebigoh to wait to make his move until the last day of his time limit .. because i wouldnt be able to be online for a few days because of a funeral .. he was so kind to do it .. of course he would have been able to move as fast as possible as well and win the game from me because of my time out .. but the way he did it, i now respect him a lot

sometimes a pawn wants to enter a tournament but cant, he wants to finish a game but doesnt want to lose it either ... he offers a draw (with some explanation) ... i would accept ...

draws in bg are all about being nice and/or fair
