No, TonyGas has figured a way to bend time in chess, having a triple-check occur while vacationing on the other side of the word in Hawaii. It's a little hard to believe, but post mortem TonyGas's FIDE rating is expected to peak at over 3000.He also has adopted Petrosian's style of grinding his opponent's to defeat, except instead of using chess pieces he tears them apart mentally.No words come close to describing the power of TonyGas. He might steal my IQ points in the coming days after reading this post.

There are two fundamental problems in this game.
1. 3 Queens and 7 Pawns problem
2. 3 simultaneous checks problem - Queen, Night, Pawn
Even though there are not any problems like these,
there is no way to win this game for White.
This is the game to mate in one for Black.
A. 1.Kg1 Nd1#(Nh3#) -> mate by b6 Bishop.
B. 1.Kg1 Rd1#
C. 1.Kg1 Qd1#
If only we change some of the chess rules as stated below, it may be possible to mate in 3.
1. Any pawn can go forward and backward.
2. If a pawn reach 1st rank or 8th rank, the pawn can promote.
3. Black must help White win.
4. The Black Queen can't get the White Queen.
1. Kg1 c1=Q+ 2. bxc1=Q Be4 3. Qc8#

i agree with everything he said excpet one thing
i find chess engines incredibly helpful (especially Fritz) and submitting it here before using Fritz would not be right for me. I would do it the other way round to see if the people noticed what the chess engine did...

I don't see the point of posting games that the person who is asking for help can't be bothered to annotate themselves first, why should I or anyone else spend more than the two minutes the person posting it has spent?
Sorry, but if I post any games here I spend an hour annotating them at the very least, since the whole point of posting is the learn something.

I see three queens and seven pawns....
Where did the extra queen come from? France?
And how there can be 3 checks in one time? TonyGas, this position is unreal.
Impossible
