Would you accept that draw?

I wonder who would offer that kind of draw, and what's the feeling behind it? desperation? you really need not to lose? your life depends on it?

the worst of all, that offer stood still till the end of opponents time.. kind of stalling.. forcing me to accept if i didnt wanna wait.

I had similar cases where i was clearly ahead and they offered a draw. Sometimes i do accept, i just feel bad for them as they probably don't want to lose rating. I stopped caring about rating points so much which is why i dont really care about it

Nah. I only take draws when I feel like the position is dead equal, or when I feel like I’m worse.

I also feel like it’s weird, etiquette-wise, to be in an obviously worse position but offer a draw. I mean, unless it’s not obvious that you’re worse and you’re trying to trick your opponent, this just seems odd to me.

Terrible etiquette. Should’ve resigned
