Sam has closed his piano and gone to bed ... now we can talk about the real stuff of life ... love, liberty and games such as Janus, Capablanca Random, Embassy Chess & the odd mention of other 10x8 variants is welcome too
For posting: - invitations to games (you can also use the New Game menu or for particular games: Janus; Capablanca Random; or Embassy) - information about upcoming tournaments - disussion of games (please limit this to completed games or discussion on how a game has arrived at a certain position ... speculation on who has an advantage or the benefits of potential moves is not permitted while that particular game is in progress) - links to interesting related sites (non-promotional)
The only way to go to the next round both of them is a draw, if we suppose of course that they will win all of their games, just like it happened. So they agreed to it. It is totally fair and legal. It also happens at Chess, Football, etc...
So when you say: "I smell something fishy, and if I find out that some wheeling and dealing has gone on behind the scenes", do you mean the draw aggrement?
I don't see something illegal. It's not the best thing to see, but nothing illegal at all.
