People aren't allowed to comment on a game in progress.

However, you can be assured that if you're not allowed to make a move, then the system won't let you.

Cheers Dutch Defense. Wan't sure if there was an etiquette issue. Does the same apply to the 3 repeated move rule? I imagine you'd be getting into all sorts of fights at your chess club!

Not sure I understand. Can you see what who said?

The person who initially responded to my question then commented on a current game. He then withdrew his comment and I was wondering what it might have been.

You get your draw only if you claim it right after the third of three identical positions.
