Then you agree that draws are not necessarily a negative.


As to the statement:

'Though if it is possible to force a draw each and every game, the
stated
capture goal might be considered inconsequential or at the least merely
an
influence during the game.'

If a game had the goal as the capture of a specific piece(like the King
in
Chess) and the player by either position or material was able to prevent
this from occuring, the capture goal would still have an effect during
the
play of the game.  Then if these subsequent draws were then evaluated by
either material or position(creating a new win conditon), this capture
goal may be inconsequential(un-attainable) or merely an influence(forcing
the players toward the new win condition) during the game.
