Ludii drew UBFM by three-times repetition, maybe not too surprising since Ludii is more fully called Ludii (UBFM). The surprising thing is how UBFM flubbed up the endgame. It had both a Queen and a Rook against the King, and instead of quickly going for checkmate, it kept repeating the same Rook moves back and forth while the King kept going back and forth.
