Bug. Game suddenly ended in a draw. No repetition and no 50 moves rule violation.

During this discussion I remember that it's not always clean for players why draw result is set. So I suggest to implement a notification which explains why draw is set: three-fold repetition, 50-move rule, stalemate or other. Sometimes you get a draw, but you don't know if it was a 50-rule move, or 3-fold repetition (or both), because 3rd repetition may occur much later than 2nd, and for player it is difficult to remember exact position (including which player is to move).
#21 What should be shown in case of a 300-move game which ends in either an insufficient material stalemate or a 3fold repetition 50-move rule?
