Not even that great, but I hate when someone doesn't resign here.
Sort:
I really hate when people don't resign and simply pray for a stalemate. Here's what I did to a foe earlier.

But if I was playing against you and you wanted to get 4 queens I would try and get a stalemate as well! It could be possible for instance you don't know about the stalemate rule if you don't win as quickly as possible.
Well, I don't know about you, but I give respect to my opponents by fighting until the end. To quote Tartakower, "I have never won a game by resigning".
If you are going to go for multiple queens, then I will force you as many moves as possible because you do not need more than two queens in most cases. Maybe you do not know how to mate without multiple queens so I might have a good chance of drawing if I continue playing.
Finish the game. Your opponent may need to see how quickly and efficiently you are able to win a won game. Show him.

Appears that you are mixing stalemate into the 50 move rule.

Draws
Occasionally chess games do not end with a winner, but with a draw. There are 5 reasons why a chess game may end in a draw:
- The position reaches a stalemate where it is one player’s turn to move, but his king is NOT in check and yet he does not have another legal move
- The players may simply agree to a draw and stop playing
- There are not enough pieces on the board to force a checkmate (example: a king and a bishop vs. a king)
- A player declares a draw if the same exact position is repeated three times (though not necessarily three times in a row)
- Fifty consecutive moves have been played where neither player has moved a pawn or captured a piece.
Note that the 50 move draw is not automatic it must be claimed.

When uberkikz is in a losing situation he doesnt resign....he just disconnects and lets his time run out. I just found this out.....i think thats a lot worse than not resigning!
