My goal is not to bore the GM, of course. I would rather have the GM claim a
draw at the TD instead of the operator deciding about a "+3 position".

My goal is to avoid situations when a competitor of the GM complains that the GM
got a draw offer at +3 and he (the competitor) had to play on in a "-1
position".
