There have been 421 stalemates on RHP this year.

Hi Ragwort,
You are right!
I missed my backward Knight move 24..Nxe6 and quickly only looked

I think Black is maybe better.. A future Blog bit. I'm in the RHP Hall of Doom!
I resigned on the 8th August the same day I played another mistake

(a Monday...I hate Mondays. Maybe stop moving at work on a Monday.)

But any capture with underpromotion also does it, the rook is simplest:
The bishop is also straightforward:
White has to do a little more work with the knight:
