Hi, I would be nice if the reason be specified, for example 'Draw by agreement', 'Threefold repetition', '50 move rule', 'Insufficient material'. After all, in games that are won, they specify 'Checkmate', 'Resignation' or 'Move timeout'. For example in http://www.redhotpawn.com/core/playchess.php?gameid=9885404, it just says game drawn without saying threefold repetition. It would be great if a reason is given. By the way, I was the one that claimed the draw by repetition so this post is nothing against my opponent whatsoever.

...this is a good idea indeed...have claimed draws several times when my opponent would PM me asking how the heck that happened...

This is in fact clearer on the new UI.
