It isn't a repeated move (by one player) that forces a draw, but rather a repeated board position. In other words, your opponent has to cooperate with you. In your game, the opponent moved a pawn each time you repeated your move, so the board position couldn't possibly be the same as it was before (since pawns only move forwards)
computer didn't register draw
Sort:
Not the moves, but the POSITION have to be the same for 3 times, with the same player to move, with the same moving possibilities.
3 times in a whole game or 3 times consecutively?
I just finished playing a game and I repeated the exact same move 4 times in a row and the computer didn't make it a draw. I even clicked the draw button. How come this doesn't work? Are we allowed to just repeat endlessly with no draw?
