Antichess Time-outs with opposite-colored bishops

I was playing in the Antichess Revolution, when this happened:


I was wondering if it was possible to add a rule that if the side who times out only has a bishop, while the other side has a bishop of the opposite color, then it is a draw (like standard chess). Thanks!

Yes, this (and similar) is possible. Somehow in my testing I missed this (or this wasn't developed; I don't recall).

Thank you!

Hallo again.

Its the pawn.

White still had win available; hence it didnt automatically draw.

In this situation you must premove your bishop as fast you can back and forth; makes no difference what square as you have 0% chance of loss.

I think its 10 moves in a row and it auto draws; might be a couple more might be a couple less.

I lost a couple in this tournament via this way too; but also won a couple this way. It balances out.

Anytime one player has the material needed to win it will not auto draw. So you must force draw.

1 second on the clock is plenty of time to get this accomplished; but a lot of the time you run into it with tenths of a second left; making it hard.

"White still had win available; hence it didnt automatically draw."
There is no legal series of moves from the final position to a win for white, as there is no way for the black bishop to capture the white one.
Therefore the game should be a draw by FIDE rules.

I had a game a few months ago when I forfeited on time in an antichess game. The position was such that after about four or five forced moves, I would win. It was not even possible to not win if I wanted not to win. All the forced moves from both sides would lead to a victory for me. However, I lost the game because I forfeited on time.
I wonder if you can imagine such a position in standard chess?

@breakreign I had bad internet connection :(

Not true. White winning isnt feasible; but it IS Possible

White moves pawn forward gets blackbishop.

Black moves bishop anywhere that wouldnt force white to take it with its new black bishop.

Or white takes knight could resultint he same

Again, this woudlnt happen, unless black was undergoing a lobotomy; but it is possible. Hence, no autodraw :o

#6 You are correct although in standard chess such positions are exceptionally rare.

#8
I think you are making a mistake here. For white to win it needs
a) stalemate or
b) to make black capture both pieces.

Interesting enough, (a) would be possible if the pawn was on b2-b6, but not in this case.
(b) is impossible because black can never capture the white bishop.

In the above situation, autodraw on black timeout would be correct.

See this one for the b-file pawn (study starts at move 31):

In this situation, 1-0 on black timeout would be correct.
