How do I accept an offer of a draw? There's no obvious link to do that...
Originally posted by MontyMooseYou can message your opponent during the game,
There should be a notice ("Your opponent has offered you a draw" ) and you click "accept" to take the draw or just make a move to decline the offer.

I have claimed a draw - my opponent has only the springer and it is impossible to set up the mate. But nothing happened. My opponent doesn't agree for draw because he want to win on time. What shall I do ?
Originally posted by BrodatyI'm aware of the game you speak of...but as it's in progress all I can say that technically I believe the game HAS the material to play on, as a pawn is present...without referring to the fide handbook, there is the certainly the '50 move rule' to play on for, if no pawn has moved and no capture been made for those 50 moves, the game can be claimed a draw...you MUST claim the draw, at that time however ! Or of course there is the threefold repetition...other than this, all I can suggest is patience and play out those 50 moves, OR further make an offer with your opposition. BUT, he is playing for The Championship here, so perhaps it's unlikely.

Originally posted by PonderableI wondered also...the points look tight between two players for this Championship however...
Is it Game 9599425 by any chance? I can't believe that a 2300+ player strifing for the site championship title would do such a thing.
Originally posted by RevRSleekerthat's true, but as long as the OP moves the other timebank is counted down also...

Edit: Of course I've just realised that he has his flag out and no time at all left in that game..the moment his flag drops the game is lost...I believe ??
