So I opened the EOC Consult window and it showed there was one game, a draw. My best guess would be that the player of the white pieces was short in time and believing this move to be some kind of trap, freaked out and offered to split the point. Any way, I thought the EOC was supposed to help Rebel10 *not* to get in to this kind of position. Miguel
