Cool, Skewyou. But where did you copy-paste that from? Wiki? Or something else? :P

It's possible he got that game from my chess site.  That ten move stalemate game has been up on my site for about fifteen years.

Here's a twelve move stalemate in which no pieces are captured:

1.d4 e5 2.Qd2 e4 3.a4 a5 4.Qf4 f5 5.h3 Qh4 6.Qh2 Bb4+ 7.Nd2 d6 8.Ra3 Be6 9.Rg3 Bb3 10.c4 c5 11.f3 f4 12.d5 e3
