Or something.... As many have said, a 'draw' button is in order, especially since there is a point rating system now. There can simply be a "offer a draw" button (on the F10 menu, right above 'leave game' ). Once you press it, a message shows up in chat: "Somedude has offered a draw." Then you open up the menu, and hit "accept draw." If you don't accept within 30 seconds, the draw offer is removed. This way, offering a draw does not pull you out of the game (like a pause would), so it can't be abused (any more than chat spamming can be). Further, the game can have some sort of automatic draw mechanic, where if no minerals have been harvested by either team for 180 seconds it's declared a draw (the system can warn of this in chat messages, similar to "... will be revealed" messages). Even better, a game creator/tournament organizer can turn on/off player draws, and set conditions for an auto-draw. However it should not do nothing to the points. In Chess ELO, a draw is a slight point drop for the higher-ranked player, and a slight point gain for the lower ranked. No reason why SC ratings shouldn't parallel this tried-and-true rating system. The above draw mechanic is actually similar to Chess, since in Chess the players can offer each other a draw, and there are also inactivity/stalemate conditions that automatically trigger a draw. | ||

Also, from Wikipedia's "Draw by agreement" article: "Although many games logically end in a draw after a hard-fought battle between the players, there have been attempts throughout history to discourage or completely disallow draws. Chess is the only widely played sport where the contestants can agree to a draw at any time for any reason. Because such quick draws are widely considered unsatisfactory both for spectators (who may only see half-an-hour of play with nothing very interesting happening) and sponsors (who suffer from decreased interest in the media), various measures have been adopted over the years to discourage players from agreeing to draws." | ||

Jaedong would be bored out of his mind, and would put 1 ling in each hotkey and micro them for giggles while he waits for T to land. If it happened in a real tournament game like OSL MSL, shit like this wouldn't happen. In case of a stalemate, either judges give the win to someone, or they ask each player if he wants to "draw" the game, and they do a rematch. It would be a draw for sure. | ||
