What is the best move for White in this position?

  1. Yes, that is the best move, because c8=Q is stalemate. It would be very easy to promote to a queen without thinking in this position.

  2. Tell me about it! But having stalemated someone before, that's a sting you don't forget, either.

    Hey, isn't the meeting tonight?

  3. Yes, the meeting was last night. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to make it. I've had to work late a lot this week.
