I don't know what you mean "since you are the only respondent".  Several
have responded in this thread.  The argument that Jonny should not have
been allowed to claim the draw because the GUI did it is simply absurd.
And it _is_ self-serving.  Shredder can not claim a draw by the rules
of FIDE, yet it certainly has claimed them in prior ICGA events.  Should
those draws be discounted?  I don't think so.
