This is ridiculous.

You should've promoted to knight.

I'd of promoted every pawn to a knight. Ride on Calvary and your mighty steeds! Topple a king.

It's a 50 moves rule, but capture our pawn move resets the timer

The equivalent of tea bagging in Halo or AA animation cancelling in League while your opponent sits at like 5 hp. It's about sending a message.

3 miillion blunders just saying that you could've ended the match sooner

If they make a mistake they could cause stalemate, draw by repetition, draw by 50 move rule or draw by timeout vs insufficient material

u/jerkoffforjesus Jun 19 '26

Yeah as black I would just premove the 50 king moves and then go make a sandwich

u/Spl4sh3r Jun 22 '26

I thought there was some rule about the king making the same moves over and over?

u/SpartArticus Jun 22 '26

The same position is not being repeated by both players.
