it is

this is on another one of your blogs

satisfied?

i'll mail it to you but don't tell anyone else

I didn't, because all of the variations I found took longer than three moves to produce mate.  Therefore, I assert that there is no solution.  Would you like to see the lines I found that don't achieve mate in three moves?

you didn't give me any variations that you think would be right though.

You said you would tell me if I was correct, or how the variation goes if I was wrong.  Now you say you won't tell me.  Have you changed your mind?

How old is the puzzle?  What is the Indian guy's name?

i'm not gonna tell you the answer but this  is a very old puzzle from an indian guy

I maintain that there is no mate in three here, and I challenge you to prove me wrong.

I ALLREADY KNOW THE ANSWER DON'T YOU REMEBER

No it is in THREE MOVES, BUT YOU HAVE TO FIND IT

I got the pawns the wrong way?  I copied directly from your original diagram, which you have now deleted.  You just flipped the board!  This is a completely different problem!

It's also not a mate in three either.  Were you thinking about 1.Re1 when Black can't recapture?  Black still has 1...Kd4 2.Bxf3 Kd3, and Black escapes mate (for now).

White won't be able to force mate for a while.  Certainly not in three moves.

Or did I overlook something again?

is that better?

you got the pawns the wrong way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Read the message I sent you and don't hesitate to ask me if there's something in it you don't understand.

NO, THERE IS A MATE IN THREE AND YOU HAVE TO FIND IT.... that is why it's called THE HARDEST PUZZLE IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, it's mate in 5, not 3.

This hurts my eyes.

hint: it does not start with a king movement because that is too slow.

it is really hard
