Great moves that dont feel so great

Some great moves I played that don't feel so great.

I was in a game and my opponent allowed me to do three-fold repetition and draw. I don't see why I should be given 4 great moves for continuing it.

You should not push the pawn

It's because your position was so bad that that was the only way out and the best you could get. happy

If it was, then Chess.com could've just given me 4 bests and I wouldn't have a problem. 4 greats? I don't think that's really accurate.

That was an only move to force a draw

Then there's this game. Why should I be given 4 greats for a basic stalemating tactic?

If it's the only good move in any position, it gets a "Great." Doesn't matter the context.

It's kinda dumb, but you eventually just accept it after a while.
