You must have used the analyze board to come up with that.

What does that buy anyone? Anyone with a 2300+ rating would have seen that to be a dead end for black and he would have proceeded with the perpet.

Even if white didn't get in the check it and left the king down there it still just looks like a perpet, say suppose he had gone for a third rook instead of the bishop.

As Swiss G. said, I was forced into looking at an endgame and now my
street cred is at an all time low so I'm playing out fantasy variations in their
game to punish them.

Forget about equating an OTB 2300 grade with what happens on here.
Here it's a different game. There maybe an agreement between the players
that we know nothing about.
"You resign this drawn game and I'll resign our other drawn game."

I have been involved in such an agreement on here.
I took a draw in a won game and my opponent gave me a draw in my lost game.
I can't remember exactly why, but why not? Who cares?

The lad wanted to resign the game. You cannot unresign a game for your
opponent, there is no 'I refuse the resignation' button.

The fact the perp was staring him the face and should have been taken
(to stop me from looking at an endgame) is up to him.
He certainly knows how to use Black Rooks on the 7th.
Game 9048727 He saced a piece to set up this standard Rook on the 7th. pattern.


Black mates with Rh2+ Rcg2+ and Rh1.

Now will you let me get back to my fantasy variations.

"...you are being playful."

I'm very rarely serious...when I give checkmate I'm serious.
