In any case 300 moves is much worse then a worst case..

No WCCC is between computers. Operators are humans but they are not allowed to declare a draw. A draw is also not correct and the game that I posted ended as a win for white not because of a stupid mistake of black. Time control is not important and the important fact is that this game can happen also in 60/2 hours+30 minutes per game. The games are between computers and I am not allowed to offer a draw or resign or change the remaining time by myself. Uri
