Totally strange behaviour.
Posted: 14 Dec 2005, 16:01GnuChess 4.0 was winning a game agains NeroWB 6.1 when the game
suddenly ended with announcement 'draw' for no reason.
That 'draw' can't be from NeroWB because it says 'stalemate' and
in other cases it tells the reason of the draw (material, 3 rep, 50 mv rule.)
Here two games, the latter ended with that strange draw message.
Do this ever happen to anyone else. Does my computer have some
illness...
