chess.com did well, even If you win by time to your opponent, you can´t win tecnically when you don´t have sufficient material to checkmate the enemy king, it´s a chess rule, therefore the game endes in a draw
so what are you saying?
ok Elliot stop

Well, that didn't go as expected.
Perhaps like the game itself?
what?
Maybe you must write a letter to FIDE and ask them to change the rules because... reasons
So you feel chess.com is a joke because you wanted to win with a king alone. With all due respect I think you are the joke.
You guys do know OP simply could have just not known that rule right? When I was new I thought I would win due to timeout but the same happend to me and i was confused. Should OP have made this forum calling the website a joke? No. Could he have just simply not know the rule? Yes
@NubbyCheeseking I agree. @UKRampage probably did not know the rule. But calling the website a joke and getting angry over not winning with a lone king takes it to another level.
I disagree with calling this website a joke, but at this point people are just making fun of OP
True. I feel like some people are being very rude.
Purple Tumbler, oops am now okay.
Thank you.

Maybe try keeping some pieces next time. They're useful if you want to win games of chess.
Sorry. Even Mari wouldn’t agree with that. Theoretically there is no possible way for black to win. Timeout Vs. insufficient material equals a draw.

So my post was to state how odd it was to let time run down to zero before declaring it a draw. For the last 2 mins of the game I recognised my opponent had the upper hand, so i was intentionally trying to win on time, nothing else. As far as the community comments, do you really think I'm at all affected by your comments?! If anything most of them amused me!
Not a joke not a joke not a joke!!!!!!
