I don´t know how many users and members of TCVP have played this great game. I have only seen at brainking.com that Andreas has been an active Amazons player, with a good performance. The best rated Amazons player at brainking is Grim Reaper (Ed Trice) Total score: 269 wins, 17 draws, 0 losses. Impressively good score."

I (Kevin Pacey) am wondering how a draw is possible in a game of Amazons. Perhaps on brainking the players are allowed to agree to a draw, or one or both players noticed (too late) that both players' playing time on their clocks had elapsed, thus resulting in a draw that way(??)
