okay white to move mate in 11.

Please don't use a chess enginge to figure this out you'll enjoy it much more if you solve on your own.
Rxh7+, Kxh7, Be3+, f4, Bxf4+, Kg1, Qg4+, Qg5, Be6, Kh2 (Kf8, Rf1+),
.. hmmm, QxQ, hxQ, BxN and white will win.

I just thought about making a puzzle thread with our game in it and saying White to move and Draw... just to see how long it would take you to figure out it was our game...
then I figured you'd call foul play, and bring i the mods, and claim your little win, etc.
