Hey guys

Here is a forced checkmate in 16, a win per FIDE, per USCF, and on chess.com.
However, as soon as white plays the winning move 7 h8=N,
black can let his clock run out of time to get a draw on chess.com.
The only way to win this on chess.com is not to play the winning 7 h8=N and try to flag black.
