I thought it would be nice to have a place to record historical oddities and game records in the wiki - unusual endings and moves, etc. So I created and added the page UnusualGames and populated it with the things I could easily search for in the DB: longest and shortest games, natural draws, etc. This was inspired by the recent thread on double goals -- if anyone knows of an actual example where it happened, it would be great if you could add it to the wiki page.

You could add my game 42036 against arimaa_master where I was forced to suicide my elephant on turn 42b.

Introducing the brilliant pattern maker, designer and greatest immobilizer of all times....... >>>>>>>>>>>>>> PMertens <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< I have listed some of his games from my little endeavor with Arimaa.
