How many years of no progress have to go by before you message the mods to ask if they can ask whoever has not yet selected draw what their plan is? Or would you never go that route?

If there's no forward progress after three years.

clearly the answer is "at the point in which you're losing but not yet eliminated"

We will only force games to draw if they have been at a stalemate for at least two years with no SC's changing hands and no possible sign of a breakthrough. If alerted to such a scenario; we will email the player(s) holding the game up and ask them how they plan to break through. If we deem their plan to be unrealistic, or it includes hoping for misorders or for players to miss phases, then we may force a game to draw.
