Go up one level in this thread


This game is really horrible. I support what you say. Maybe programmers could
define a condition like "If no advancement (evaluation increase) is made for ten
moves, so accept a draw offer". The problem can also occur when a position is
theoretically won by the side which has a material advantage (which the computer
has and won't ever accept a draw therefore), but the computer can't find a
method to win.

Btw., has anybody ever got a draw offer from a program? I haven't. I would like
to see this also.
