Does it count as guessing if make the assumption (a guess of sorts) that it is a chess board, and then take the fifty-fifty chance (another guess) that the upper left is the black square and not the white one?#3: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Feb 29, 2012

I liked the first one better. Why make it so easy?#6: Gary Calvin (garycalvin) on Aug 4, 2018
I think this is a stalemate, not a checkmate. Assuming White has his king, a knight and a pawn, and Black has just his king, it doesn't look to me like the Black king is in check.
