See you there. This was a fun day.
@diadematus That image doesn't seem to indicate that the game ended in a threefold?
@diadematus wait bruh I accidentally bet 790 on no because of that because it didn't happen in pragg's game
@diadematus Then why is Kd5 indicated as a move included in the lichess record of the game there? Shouldn't the record show the game ending in a draw without that as a move 63 for black?
@BoltonBailey because lichess is only transmitting the live moves from the dgt boards. this is standard shit...nothing confusing or controversial here
@harfe The game is a draw if a position occurs (at least) three times during the game. (Intervening moves do not matter.) It must be claimed by the player with the turn to move. The claim is made:
(a) If the position is about to appear for the third time, the player making the claim first writes their move on their scoresheet and notifies the arbiter that they intend to make this move.
- the game was an obvious threefold...only if you're not familiar with dgt board etiquette would you think otherwise
@diadematus well, I am the biggest YES holder so you don't need to convince me.
@diadematus Yea it was a threefold I checked the VOD, they repeated and called the arbiter. Even commentators said it.

@diadematus Yes, you're right, if you look at the tape you can see Abasov stop the clock before the arbiter puts the king on the square.
@kevin5050 Yea I am sorry about that, DGT boards can be kinda confusing. But correct resolution is YES.
I might send you some of it back tomorrow to make it less painful.
@Weezing Well, seems they were banned, not sure why though or who banned them actually, seems deleting your account bans you
@Weezing I had in mind "at any point after move 20, the time on Vidit's clock is > time on Gukesh's clock," so for example if Vidit makes a move, gains 30s, thus taking him to more time than Gukesh, it would resolve YES.
@harfe Yea this is the recent change, because people usually use it when the event has already happened.
