Mr Cliffton,y do u always post pictures,eh?
This is a serious topic!
Why do you think pictures aren't serious?
Yes, but you do have to admit...he is a serious troll.
Have we abolished the knight yet?
Because we should!
I'm afraid that's kinda like the baseball announcer saying: "Boy, this game is just breezing by!...we'll be out of here in no time."

I agree. It's sneeky and damned unenglish!
For a serious answer, OP, consider that in time controls with increment or even a modest delay, these sorts of games might never end. How long would you have the players go at it? Just keep playing till someone dies of boredom?
I, for one, look forward to having to wait potentially hundreds of moves for three-fold repetition to arise in otherwise dead drawn positions my opponent refuses to abandon.
Or are we getting rid of that as well?
That's going away as well. You have to either win, or wait for your opponent to die of old age, at which point you get the forfeit but no rating adjustment as the game did not conclude by normal means.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifty-move_rule
''The fifty-move rule in chess states that a player can claim a draw if no capture has been made and no pawn has been moved in the last fifty consecutive moves (fifty moves by each side). The intended reason for the rule is so that a player with no chance to win cannot be obstinate and play on indefinitely (Hooper & Whyld 1992), or seek a win purely due to an opponent's fatigue. All of the basic checkmates can be accomplished in well under fifty moves...''
Us Anti 50 move rulers would like u Pro 50 move rulers to come up with ideas/arguments of y the so called 50 move rule should be abolished.
first of all,why should we abolish it?
1)the last 50 consecutive moves have been made by each player without the movement of any pawn and without the capture of any piece.
well y should it be a draw?u cant make even 50 moves without being mated.
2)It should be a loss since youd be mated
pretty true...
3)Why shall it be a draw if u made 50 moves?
why???
Also, argue for a change!!!This stupid rule MUST be abolished!!!
