Hello,


Please help us implement this rule draw rule in Arena too. We promise Arena
will be free of charge, even with this new future...
http://www.playwitharena.com/common/pic/draw. And they want money for
this crap. No reaction by support by the way...

So what is this rule about ?

There is no such thing as a 290 move rule in Chess.

I honestly can't tell if:

a) You and David have a very droll sense of humor, or

b) You guys don't realize that Michael is just poking fun at the
bugginess of the Chessbase GUI, and promoting the Arena GUI at the
same time.

The latter, in my case, as I realised a little while after posting. :-)

Quicker than I did. Snookered me until I read the above post.

Did you know that the word "Gullible" is not found in any computer
spellchecker or online dictionary?
