And since they drew in 22 moves today, TwoSheds has officially broken his old record.

It's interesting that, although this has been the most chessless match in history, that there were technically no "GM" draws in it. Every draw went past Move 20. It's just getting to Move 25 that was so difficult.

Well, one thing. It was nice of them to draw in exactly 22 moves, and bring the Moves/Game total down to an even 29.00.
