Hello!
There has been a lot of messages concerning the 50-moves
rule. It has been agreed that the rules changed about 10-
15 years ago. Before that the draw could only be claimed
by showing that 50 moves have happened without capture or
pawn move. Nowadays draw can be claimed also if there is
a possibility make such a move. This has influence to the
longest possible game, where no one could claim for draw.
My game was published in in "Suomen Tehtäväniekat" 2004,
and surprisingly enough it is only one half move shorter
than the game with old rules. Olli.
