If you accept time controls of 90d +10d you might often end up in games lasting one year. so don't join a match with that time controls.

Positions occurs on 38.Ke2, 40.Nf8, and 42...Kd6 I would like to note that according to Rules there was not 3-fold-repetition. The term "position" includes information about side to move, so osition after 42...Kd6 is not the same as after 38.Ke2 and 40.Nf8. That's indeed true!The position with both...

The ELO-performanc...
