Too many circles, hard to move figures, game called a draw with only my pieces chasing King??

@domwild said ^

Hi,

Does it mean the server is busy when I cannot move pieces and the source position gets a circle and the destination sometimes too? On the other hand, thanks for stopping me blundering.
In my last game I had captured every opposition piece and was merrily chasing the King, then the program decided I am only worth a draw? Looks like the author of the program gave himself 50% ??
dude you know tahts a literal stalemate

The moment I click on a figure, the circle appears. After several tries I might be lucky and can move, but this is no big bother.

Interesting to see insults being traded despite this forum dealing with an intelligent topic.

Looks like this genius has come across what is called the "dumbest" rule in chess according to the web, namely the rule of stalemate, when being in a strong position with two Queens, e.g.,, but not being able to pin the King fast enough. Apparently that is called "trolling" the King and does not get rewarded. Live and learn!
