Drawing

Hi everyone,

There have been many controversies with drawing.

What does everyone think the solution should be?

1. 30-move rule

2. 3pts for win, 1pt for draw, 0pts for loss

3. No draw rule (if a draw occurs, then players restart with same time and different colors)

4. Other

Please comment on what would be best (your opinion)

PLEASE DO NOT BE OFF TOPIC

Here is a game from the 1800s that people used to play to get a 30-move draw (the immortal draw)

There is a forced perpetual for the opening the Ruy Lopez for black... Does anyone know it?

Please write back,

Phren, I think he was saying: here is a game from the 1800s that was a draw, and there is also a forced drawing line for Black in some line of the Ruy.

But I may have misunderstood
