what’s the difference between a draw and a stalemate

You get half a point either way. You know what they say about half a loaf.

I would guess all of the various forms of draws everyone could still move. The exception would be draw by inefficient mating material, because the clock stopped. In a stalemate it is the persons turn to move, has time to move, but cannot legally move, and the king is not in check.

That is a new one. It has its logic.

I vaguely remember on Yahoo Chess, time is winning regardless of material.

And vaguely remembered in a chess club.

When the flag falls you lose, even if the other only has a King. Because time is a piece.

Ahead of time is ahead in "material".

It's like the ending of Rocky II.

I don’t like this new rule.

I first learned in chess, in the ticking of the Jerger mechanical clock that

Time itself is our ultimate opponent.

“Like sands falling through the hourglass, so are the Days of Our Lives.”

Time should always be an opponent, because it is.

Let me teach you another lesson.

There is nothing faster and more accurate than oral history. I.e. My bro told me, and then I told my bro and then he tells his bro . . . or his "brotege" . . .

Chess is quite unique. Chess can stop time. Chess can parcel out time.

Boxing. Both fighters are on the same clock.

In chess, there are 2 clocks.

You use your time and not the opponent's time. (You can use the opponent's time to think too, but you know what I mean.)

You can lose on the board or you can lose on time.

It is the only game that is so.

And it is accurate to reality.

Time is the ultimate opponent!

Think about it.

A ticking clock is like a heart beat, and vice versa.

When the clock stops ticking, you're dead.
