If my memory serves me correctly there was one that had just two kings chasing each other around the board for a LONG time.

They got to 175 moves as far as I can remember, maybe someone still knows the game number?

Jacko007 and I had a game like that a while back. Schliemann (along with the rest of the RHP community) was really mad about it! I'm not sure what the game number is. Although, I don't think the game I'm talking about was 175 moves!!

Andrew,

I seem to remember you mentioning a game that went 100+ moves where the first piece taken wasn't until around the 70th move. But, I could be wrong. Maybe you just posted on the thread.

Cheers,

Bill

I meant in terms of time.But now you mentioned it,I'm wondering about moves too.

If you wanna have fun racing around the board with two lone kings,that's fine by me.But such games don't count in my opinion.

I had fun. It was even more fun annoying Jacko...JUST KIDDING...disreguard that last statement 😉.

P.S. I checked and the game was only 85 moves! HAH! That definately isn't the longest game (by moves)..I've had longer games than that, myself.
