Yeah, I forgot about one important detail.
It's a stalemate when a player has no legal moves and their king isn't in check.Because if it is, it's not a stalemate but a mate.
you can't dictate to me how senseful moves i should make, or assume that i consider it a videogame, or even assume that someone considering it a videogame is wrong. you consider it whatever you want, don't try to engulf me with your opinions about ultrabullet and whether or not it is a videogame, especially when all you play yourself is bullet, which is essentially not that far from ultra. the accuracy of moves i make in 15 seconds is almost same you do it in 1 minute games and i am 2300 there so whats your point anyway?

It’s stale, mate!
How did you ever make it to 2000 without learning how to trap a piece?

yes it should be a loss like in Chinese chess. Far mo elegant: If player can make legal move he is lost.
Cover mate and check mate. But you cannot change basic rules of the game. then it is a another game
