Stalemate not detected

[richb]

I have a game with just two kings left but DG doesn't declare
statement. I sent an email to sup...@cocoastuff.com last year but
never heard back. Is this a known problem?

Hi,

First off, I’m sorry I haven’t replied to your support mail. It’s the right email address, I must have overlooked it.

This is a known issue. Deep Green internally recognises stalemate situations like this (even threefold repetitions), but doesn’t communicate it to the user. In the current version Deep Green is a rather “analogue” experience where it’s up to the user to stop the game or, rather, start a new one.

In the future, where you can have multiple games, I’ll probably have Deep Green handle these situations in a different manner.

Best regards,

Joachim

Ok thanks for the reply Joachim. It would be good to have stalemate
detected in a future update, particularly for threefold repetition.
