Do draws affect your rating?

Are set-piece games rated? I just played one and it doesn't seem to be included in my list of rated games. If not, for what reason I wonder?!

Nope - all set piece games are unrated.

Well, one reason might be that you could set the game up with one move to checkmate and make it yourself to move. Very handy eh? I think I read in the forums that this was done in the past before the loophole was plugged.

Do some math, you'll find this is stupid to stall a game. If you have 10 lost and 10 won you get more points than 10 won and 10 lost. Funny, and true.

Don't stall your game, get it over with THEN go for your wins.
