Many times getting a draw in a chess game is celebrated. Of course you would be happier if you would have won, but you will be happy just the same with a draw. The draws to me are just as amazing many times as the wins when I look at the games of a super tournament, or any tournament for that matter.
Can you force a draw chess?
To claim a draw, the position must be repeated three times (although it does not have to be in a row). In your example, the position with a Black queen and b4 and a White king on b2 has only occurred twice so far. You can claim a draw by repetition of position the next time that you can cause that position to appear.
Is it good etiquette to offer a draw in a online game?
No. No takebacks, no draw offers. In short time controls this is part of the game. It’s the same as a blunder under pressure. I pressured the opponent on either time or position, and the person cracked and made a mistake.
Is it good etiquette to offer a draw in chess?
In a online game, is it considered good etiquette to offer a draw when the opponent obviously misclicked? For example, instead of capturing (and therefore exchanging) the queen on d8, white moved his queen from d1 to d7, and black can capture this queen for free.
Do you offer a draw if your opponent makes a move?
Do not offer a draw without also making a move. Your opponent can say “I’ll think about it” and if you find a winning move later and make it, accept and still get the draw. That is because the draw offer stands until your opponent makes a move. EDIT: I believe the OP misread the rule.
Why are there no takebacks, no draw offers?
No takebacks, no draw offers. In short time controls this is part of the game. It’s the same as a blunder under pressure. I pressured the opponent on either time or position, and the person cracked and made a mistake. Or your other example, of moving the king instead of castling in the beginning: That’s what one get for trying to blitz out moves.
