Actually I believe we have some chances to draw. While Kg7 seems the obvious answer, let's discuss what is our plan in the endgame. I'm not good at this kind of endgames, but from what I understand our plan should be to try to exchange our pawns for one pawn from each island for white, so that he does not have connected passers. f2 and b3 seem the obvious choices.

[Spock]

Yes, Kg7 but I'm not sure what our plan is after that

[Matthias Gemuh]

I will wait for R30's next move before I start thinking

... the problem I see is that our king must stay king side, and white has stubborn pawns on queen side.
