3-fold repetition doesnt register

Avatar of Weirdgerman

Okay, so, this has happened to me twice now, i play a game, the engine says that i am completely crushing, i follow through and play the "Top" engine moves and BOOM, draw by 3 fold repetition, yet the computer says im winning, yet the all other moves in the position make it a draw by insufficient material or 50 Move rule. I think the CC engine has a problem comprehending 3 fold rep. Has this hapoened to any of you? And to @staff and mods, is this gonna be fixed? Edit: As i have now been accused multiple times of cheating, i wanted to specify it was AFTER games when i reviewed them, not during them

You can't use engines during games, so you shouldn't see that you're winning, play the move, and get a draw

That said, do you have an example game where analysis has that issue? If so, please link it and the engine you have configured

If you're talking about this game, the engine does not suggest the move that leads to repetition.

You moved Bb5, which allows white to repeat for the third time. It's not in the top 5 moves.

Whats the point of using an engine against an engine?? Also, he could be referring to post-game analysis, which would be my guess. True Germans don't cheat.

I also didnt say during games, i didnt specify it. It was when i REVIEW games, and then when the last move is REVIEWED it still says i was completely winning, unlike with stalemate or checkmate, where the eval bar shows 0.0/0-1 but it just doesnt do the same with 3 fold repetition, why is that? I also wanted to specify AGAIN, i am NOT cheating (my recent game accuracies mightve given that away though).

Yet Bb5 was still "excellent" not like in a different game where it was a "great" move that lead to 3-fold on the next move.
