@ADings Ding lost on time in Game 3

@ADings to clarify -- if a game ever reaches a tablebase draw, and later ends in a victory, then this resolves yes? E.g. if a tablebase-drawn position is reached and then one of the players blunders and gets checkmated

@diracdeltafunk I'm sorry, I don't follow. What exactly is needed to clarify?

@ADings I guess I want to make sure that it would count for only a single position (1 ply) in the game to be a tablebase draw.

@diracdeltafunk Okay. Yes that would count.

@ADings cheers, thanks!

@strutheo Resolves yes as of Game 2

@strutheo Since this is Manifold, where stupid semantics rule the world, I'm going to put it out there that according to Wikipedia, female cats are called queens, which means that CLEARLY the Queen's Gambit opening will make this resolve YES :-)

@ADings does this include resignation?

@Nightsquared No
