People sometimes offer a draw in a totally lost position in hopes of that you'll accept it for whatever reason (even by accident) and thus they'll get a better result than what is inevitable. It's not a very courteous habit, though.
Draw offered? What?

I don't get it. I assume it's a joke, because I'm looking and don't understand the tactical value. If there is really something there, I'd like to know.
I did notice that 21. Qxb8 is a free Knight.
I also noticed that the game starts with the hypothetical I made, which means I don't know how to work the game diagram too well.
Good game. Nice planning you did there.
P.S. Are you French? I know 'Moi' means 'Me'. So does 'Autre' mean 'Opponent'?

No, I'm not French. I've studied it in college and loved it, though. Autre is other. Technically I should use L'autre for The Other, but oh well.
This is a game I played. I've been playing for 3 months, so I'm no GM, but I thought I played well. My opponent offered me a draw after my last move, and then resigned after I declined. I understand resigning, but why would I accept a draw? Would love to know what people think. If you see large errors, I love to know where and how I screwed up!
Merci beaucoup!
