Just say it: "I resign"

The longest game, in terms of the number of moves made, in the just concluded national finals for the Dresden Olympiad took place between untitled Jony Habla and Edmundo Gatus. These two players executed a decisive marathon duel which lasted for 103 moves! Habla outlasted Gatus in a, well, not so ‘dignified’ endgame. All I can say is that a real gentleman knows when to say “I resign.” See the game and decide for yourself.
