Right, I meant c3, I'm getting ahead of myself...

I will say, this might have been solvable if king started on c3 though.

No--the whole problem was either take the rook or don't. You made shit up. We could start with your king at c3 and you'd still lose.

Well, if the king started on c3, he could protect the pawn that takes the rook...

As far as this exercise, I was hoping you would take my d5 pawn with c3.

Nothing ventured nothing gained though, and I didn't see anyone else daring to dream a non cowardly draw.
