I don't know when Frans offered the draw - it doesn't seem to be indicated
anywhere for sure when it was offered.

My post was addressing your statement "The rules don't say when you may offer a
draw." - which is false, because the rules do actually say when it is acceptable
to offer a draw.

Adrien.
