A third light-squared bishop! Now that shows real imagination. Can a King and two light squared bishops force checkmate? I imagine not. Can a King and three light squared bishops force checkmate?

No, because as long as the enemy king just uses dark squares you cannot even check him, so obviously no checkmate I would guess

Does it count as tormenting my opponent if I am already beating them and can checkmate them in a few moves, but instead I want to turn all of my pawns into queens and then checkmate them just for the heck of it?
If you want . Someone did it to me and it finished as a draw.

I'd count it as a troll in a regular game.

Someone did this to me, and it ended in a stalemate which made me laugh... ;-)
