Ramawolf (2970) vs IDontCastle (3000) http://www.net-chess.com/game/g1105354689 has completed 165 moves with much at stake.
Lots of material is still on the board.
The next move ties my longest game ever at 166 moves (DRAW).
What is/was your longest game?

WoW ! Impressive !

You Marathon Chess Game fellas thus far have me beat by 84 game moves !

I googled "Long Chess Games" and found this tidbit of trivia ........

"The longest (Live) tournament chess game (in terms of moves) ever to be played was Nikolić–Arsović,
Belgrade 1989, which lasted for 269 moves and took 20 hours and 15 minutes to complete a drawn game."

To Ramawolf and IDontCastle ..................

May The Best/Strongest Marathon Chess Player Be Victorious ..... although, unless there be a blunder by either,

it looks a bit drawish to me ......

Hmmmmm....
