Quarantäneliga

Dear organizers and participants of Quarantäneliga,

as I` ve been asked several times about the concrete rules of drawn games and the points received, I wanted to start a new topic.
In our Team we sometimes have the problem, that we don` t know when one of our players receives points for a draw and when there is an exception and both (him and the opponent) don` t get anything.

We speculated that there might be a certain length of the game required to actually get the point.
Another idea of ours was that is has something to do with draws getting played in a row.

As you see we don` t really have clue about it and would thankful if one of you could bring some light into darkness.

Best regards
Draw streaks: When a player has consecutive draws in an arena, only the first draw will result in a point, or draws lasting more than 40 moves. The draw streak can only be broken by a win, not a loss or a draw.

Or the drawn game is shorter than 10 moves (which is definitely a reasonable thing).
at the bottom of lichess.org/tournament/help?system=arena
Until a couple weeks ago that's what it was called or Q-liga or Quarantine liga
All draws are counted > 30 moves.

The title is ok, it is pretty famous in Germany. I guess it is not too difficult to understand for the English-speaking community^^
