What's the result, in Three Checks Chess, if the third check repeats the position for the third time?

Subject: Re:

ughaibu: The obvious answer is that the same position with a different number of checks given beforehand is in fact not the same position, so the repetition rule should not apply. Good question though since it is unclear whether the written rules mean that, and whether the implementation matches that.
