is there anyway for someone who has a king and a knight to win against someone who only has a king?

Drawn.

K + N vs K is drawn as long as there are no pawns and nothing else.

thats what I thought but my opponenet won't accept the draw so we just keep playin, and it is just one knight. do i have to wait for 100 half moves to claim the draw?

Sac your knight! Then it will be K vs K and he will finally see the light!

Haha, use your timeout to the maximum and prolong the game as long as you can!

O you're a non-sub as well.

Hm.... What to do, what to do.
