... but it is not letting me claim a draw!!!Try the 'offer draw' option - it's obviously a draw but it is one of the quirks of this site that it's not automatic.

Joined 29 Apr '05 Moves 19877 offer draw worked, but the site should reconize that the game was a draw.

... but it is not letting me claim a draw!!!The site doesn't recognise draws through insufficient material, so it is up to the players to agree a draw, or wait until the 50 move rule.

Joined 10 May '05 Moves 86045 I agree the site should recognise drawn games it would save alot of time...
Joined 21 Sep '05 Moves 75006 My rating is in free-fall at the moment, so it's not really appropriate for me to comment on anyone else's play, but was there an opportunity for white to win this by playing a different move 51 ?
K x g6 looks good to me. If the Rook takes the white pawn then 52 Rd8 is mate, any other move means that white can save the pawn.
Or am I missing something?
