I'm a weak player, and GNU Chess 5.0 (which I just
downloaded with WinBoard 4.05) normally slaughters
me.  But on one occasion, it slaughtered itself:

[Event "Computer chess game"]
[Site "DEFAULT"]
[Date "2000.01.15"]
[Round "-"]
[White "Angus Rodgers"]
[Black "GNUChes5"]
[Result "1-0"]
[TimeControl "10/300"]

1. e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nc6 3. c3 Nf6 4. d3 Nxe4 5. dxe4
{White wins on time} 1-0

Black's clock just kept on ticking down, with no
further moves being made.
