What to do with gameid=198256?
NOTE: I do NOT want to discuss who's better!!!
It's an endgame at move 135. The last capture was at move 80.
Under normal rules the game would be declared a draw since there are more than 50 moves made without a capture or a pawnmove.
Normally I wouldn't bother if they kept playing on forever, but it's the LAST game in a tournament round!
I think it's obvious this is not a desirable situation.

So the question is how to act!

I started a thread in the tournament forum on this. Still no reply though.

Send a private message to Russ.Ask him to have a look at the game and he will declare it a draw.
Works faster than waiting for him to read this thread 😉
