no birds, no butterflys, November

But there are no draws, points are only awarded for wins.

Thanks. I'll think more about it.

Go here http://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessplayer?pid=82147 scroll down and you'll find a link to your game.

But will I still be married by the time that game finishes?

The game with Trice? Of course it's a joke. I'm publishing that game at http://www.chessgames.com/index.html do as you like.

Why not resign the game?

I am a part of this game playing community as are you and Trice, our behaviour reflects upon each other.

Which one?

Okay. Chess players have to suffer draws in any case.

Generally it's bad manners to offer a draw in an inferior position, in effect this means that if a draw offer is refused the opponent thinks that their position is better, ie no consecutive draw offers by either player.

How about deducting 50BK for each draw offer?

I'm going to post a thematic chess tournament, winners will be those to first double rooks on the 7th, no draws. The tournament'll be entitled "blind pigs" and'll be co-dedicated to the global moderators and the cloak facility.

In shogi draws can not be agreed. Perpetual check loses for the checking player and stalemate, of course, loses for the dead king. As a consequence I've never played a draw in shogi and that's over about 25 years. Professionals play about one draw by repetition in every fifty games and about one jishogi in every two hundred plus. In any case all draws are replayed with switched colours and the remaining time.

"You dont hear me crying about it", maybe not but I've just read it.

Months ago Gothic claimed he was winning and said he'd play each move at the last available second to drag the game out, this couched in terms including obscenities. Trice thereby set a standard for poor sportsmanship at BrainKing that I hope nobody else will ever approach. Yet he still won't resign, in this position that I could win in my sleep. I dont really care one way or the other about Trice but I care about BrainKing. This is an internet community, of social events, this unsporting behaviour of Trice' is not part of my idea of BrainKing, if it were to become the norm I would no longer play here. Okay, one pervert is tolerable, but that's a tournament game, this idiot is wasting everybody in that tournament's time.

Do you not know the story of this game?

Quite. Trice must've been drunk for the god knows how many months he's dragged this game out.

Why's that?

Even I could win from AlexII's position.

He didn't seem to want the game to finish and I didn't want to spoil his fun.
