And u have time to take the draw but u have to be fast.

Sort:
that's what I mean, there are times when you have the forced played, ie 3 position repition but you do not have enough time to make it from the board to the interface to claim the draw. In OTB chess you can stop the clock and go to the arbiter to claim the draw (assuming you wrote all the moves down of course). However, with live, you can't just stop the clock to hit the draw button hence why it would be nice to have the automatic claim in place as other servers have(playchess, ICC, FICS, etc).
If it's automatic, what happens if you don't wish to claim the draw?
I think in babas chess you can select 'automatically claim draw' like you can select automatically promote to queen. Maybe he means something like this. Maybe a tick-box next to the draw button.
yes like sstteevveenn says, a auto claim draw button to be able to click would be nice
Maybe a way to filter the seeks players want to accept? so we can avoid the whole 'mistaken seek accepted I'm going to cancel this game right now' phenomenon. Which is very uncool since I went to all that trouble to create the seek in the first place. I mean if you don't want to play me, don't accept my seek!! :)
Could there perhaps be a selection in the individual preferences i.e players can set there seek option to only allow players over a certain ratings seeks to show up, or if they 'accidentally' select the wrong seek stop the game from starting and leave the seek open for someone else to accept it?
I'll play anyone that accepts my seek, but that doesn't seem to be the case for a lot of the higher ranked players.
I would like to ask that when there are positions that are repeated three times that the server automatically adjudicate the game to be a draw. The reasons are that:
A) Most servers have this function so players never hear about having to claim a draw in blitz and bullet.
B) People sometimes have three position repetition (perpetual check usually) but do not have enough time to move mouse to claim the draw even though they have forced the draw.
Thanks.
