In recent years our game experienced quite a few innovations such as:

- change of the classical time control - new system for the World Championship Cycle - anti-doping control - anti-electronic devices control

One more very important issue has been raised recently after the high level tournaments in Corsica and in Sofia: fighting short draws. Short draws cause frequent complaints from the organizers and disappointment for the public.

All this was subject to discussion among the ACP Board recently. We, therefore, decided to make a poll in order to find out your vision of the problem.

ACP Members as well as all chess players having the FIDE title of International Master (IM or WIM) or International Grandmaster (GM or WGM) are kindly invited to take part in this poll. Please express your opinion!

The last day to vote is the 5th of March 2007.
