Hi Martin, [Event "Test game for Andreas"] [Site "Virtually in my head"] [Date "2003.06.17"] [White "Left part of my head v31"] [Black "Right part of my head v31"] [Result "1/2-1/2"] [TimeControl "endless"] 1. h3 h6 2. Rh2 Rh7 3. Rh1 Rh8 {in fact this is the first repetition, because of changed castling rights, Quark would think that it is NO repetition} > This is definitely NO repetition because same position means same moving > rights. just a note from the FIDE Chess laws book: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 9.2 The game is drawn, upon a correct claim by the player having the move, when the same position, for at least the third time (not necessarily by sequential repetition of moves) a) is about to appear, if he first writes his move on his scoresheet and declares to the arbiter his intention to make this move, or b) has just appeared, and the player claiming the draw has the move. Positions as in (a) and (b) are considered the same, if the same player has the move, pieces of the same kind and colour occupy the same squares, and the possible moves of all the pieces of both players are the same. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< so far it would mean that I am right... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Positions are not the same if a pawn that could have been captured en passant can no longer be captured or if the right to castle has been changed temporarily or permanently <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< but the next one declares that I am wrong... so all fine with me, because Quark is doing it correctly... :) Greets, Thomas
