Well, every server seems to have their own (private) rules...
Does the USCF have different rules than FIDE? Would K+N versus K+N automatically be a draw under USCF rules?
I do not have the rule book in front of me, but as of the 5th edition (and I'm pretty sure it stayed the same in the 6th edition rules) I believe only way the side with the two knights would get the win is if the was a forced mate on the board. Someone may get to it before me but I can verify that later.
Interesting...

OK, rule 14E deals with Insufficient Material to Win on Time.
Here is the full wording for two knights:
"14E3: King and two knights
Opponent only has king and two knights, the player has no pawns, and opponent does not have a forced win."
So, the site doesn't follow USCF rules in this instance either.
