♡ 32 ( +1 | -1 ) Most moves in a gameThis may not have any tactical or analytical merit, but what are the longest games that people out there have had? My longest is 111 moves which ended in a draw. I'm curious as to if there are any which are much longer. Kind regards icantwrite

♡ 70 ( +1 | -1 ) ..."The master game with the most moves on record was one of 269 moves between Ivan Nikolic and Goran Arsovic. The game ended in a draw during a Belgrade tournament on Feb 17, 1989. The game lasted 20 hours, 15 minutes. Prior to this game, the longest tournament game was Martinovsky-Jansa, Gausdal 1987, which drew after 194 moves. The longest decisive game was 193 moves when Stepak defeated Mashian after 24 1/2 hours of play in Israel, 1980."

♡ 26 ( +1 | -1 ) Funny You Should AskFinished my longest game this morning. 80 moves; ended in a win by resignation. Probably could have ended it earlier if I knew how to bring home a decisive advantage ... I can steal defeat from the jaws of victory with the best of them.

♡ 15 ( +1 | -1 ) icantwrite, you were lucky :-)If instead of 109. h7?, White plays 109. Kg6!, all White has to do is manouever the Knight to f7 (with or without check) and then advance the h-pawn.
My longest game on GK is a win in 84 moves.
