it now appears it wasn't them, as I remember it had a knight hopping around the corner in a futile attempt to mate, and bowmann doesn't have such a game. but they do have 157 moves long one, with a quite silly ending as well. Game 1120321
That was rediculous. If they were using engines then they must have been turning them on and off throughout the game as white was clearly winning in several positions and then blows it by playing an irrelevant move.

I remember that game. It was Regicidal, not Bowmann. If I remember correctly the text exchange was pretty ridiculous as well.

When he showed us the game, he included the text conversation that went with it.

Hm, I remember one game where a player refused to mate - it ironically ended in stalemate, and I think it got over 200 moves. It was in a tournament for people with (I think) the letter 'v' in their username.
