题目: Re: The 3 move draw rule

EdTrice:
The English (EDA) introduced a 4 fold repetition rule in the early 1990's along with clarification of "making progress". But even 3 fold repetition is OK - with perfect play you NEVER need repeat a position - so you have a couple of chances to get it right - or do you want forever :)

题目: Re: The 3 move draw rule

EdTrice: It's an IYT rule. No checker fedration ever signed off on it.

题目: Re: The 3 move draw rule

Jumper2: The site owner Pat told me once he knows nothing about checkers. The original purpose of the rule was to prevent a player who was in a 1-1 mathmatical draw from refusing the draw offers and carrying the game on forever. You are right in that it is a bad rule when applied in other cases. If someone stubbornly refuses a cerain draw here Fencer will step in when notified and declare the game a draw.

题目: The 3 move draw rule

This rule is totally wrong in checkers. You have to repeat a move everyonce in awhile to run the opponent out of moves. We should get up a petition of 2000 plus players signing it so management knows their is a problem. or flood the mail with individual protests. Jim Loy should be a big help with this problem.

题目: A Tough One

There is a pretty simple formula for 3 Kings to defeat 2 Kings in opposite double corners but it takes a bit of shuffling back and forth to line the 3 up properly. On IYT my opponent knew how to do it (I had the 2 Kings) but in the process of aligning he duplicated the same position 3 times and the site declared the game a draw. Unless someone knows a super fast way to do this I think it tilts the game unfairly.

*nod* i have it quite often with froglet .. its tough chosing when you only see the red ones clearly and the other 3 colors are replaced by red crosses :)

the problem is gone as soon as i clean my temporary internet files etc. :)

Yep, it helps sometime. I have this problem quite often (MSIE), it's quite annoying. Once I made my move in chess and some figures appeared first after I clicked on "move". :-)

when certain parts of the graphics arent loading then you have a problem with either your internet connection or your browser (probably the cache which is filled up) .. you can try to refresh the page of the game and see if it loads better .. with internet explorer you can press F5 and also Ctrl-F5

17. 十一月 2004, 20:50:10

Pardon?
I was also sure further down that you said ..slow at first than look out.. now you are saying that you slowed down

Tried that with Trice. I opened with the Rattlesnake and he changed his move from the agreed openning. His program did the rest.

No I don't Butch because all decent programs have the three move openings already built in. I don't see a solution to this problem arriving soon.

BTW..Sorry for not visiting, I had my mind on other things. I am sure you understand. :o)
