I think the vast majority of chess.com users fail to understand sarcasm.
King & Queen vs. King
sarcasm is the highest form of all humor and deserves a place among the stars
well back to the main discussion, what were you saying about Americans not geting sarcasm
All people from all places understand sarcasm
weather they acknowledge it is up to them
Notice for your aid sarcasm has been written, i mean typed in purple or is that pink

Lol, fair enough :-)
it should be obvious that reasonabledoubt is trolling. if K+R vs K and K+Q vs K+R are both forced, then K+Q vs K definitely is.

Incorrect. There are certain stalemate defences in the K+Q vs. K endgame that aren't applicable to the other cases you have mentioned.
some how i think he may be the troll here
but unless the 50move rule applies its a draw, regardless its polite to resign in such a position
(That's my way of saying yes, it is still fun )
prince of persia two thrones?
It's an easy draw... just run your king into the corner.
i just did that but pushed him out of the corner...or lets say i gave him no choice but to move to the side. Obviously it took a few too many moves to mate him but far less the 50
You know what I mean.
Actually, I've learned never to assume.
but reall!!! who would call it a draw unless they are being nice to the other guy
guys, almost ALL of you that have posted are rated higher than me, and yet you insist that you can't force a draw? pfffff....
Obviously, K+Q vs K is a draw. with a little help of the "Magic Bag Trick"

I could beat Garry Kasparov if I had the white pieces and he had the black pieces. You should resign, and don't post ongoing games.
No, you couldn't... I bet you think that K+N+N is a win too if you really don't know that K+Q is an obvious draw. Then again, you might just be trolling.
THIS IS ALL NONSENCE! Shut up ResonableDoubt!
no, its an easy win for the side with the queen
No, it's a dead draw. Sheesh, study some endgame theory for once.
Jeremy Silman says you can mate in 7 moves.

ReasonableDoubt, can you prove it????????
Is it me, or do the vast majority of Americans really not get sarcasm?
