I am puzzled by the forkman's puzzle. It should be a one mover. I don't know why the solution should be that long.

Forkman made the win all the more sweeter with the extra moves.

This puzzle if from a blitz (10 minute) game. It is White to move and win material.
Someone asked about an editor. I use the excellent free Babas Chess, which also allows you to play online. It has a full range of editing options, including saving positions to the clipbloard in fen/pgn format for pasting into chess.com's own editor. I haven't had a lot of luck with the chess.com editor so I prefer to use that one, and it's free! Just do a search for Babas or go directly to the website:

It is not mate in 4, that requires that your opponent makes exactly the moves you wish him to make. Then it's not a puzzle but a chess dream. What would be the response to 27.Qc8?
Sprite wrote: Chesscrazy127, that's a good example of a smothered mate, but isn't checkmate as white can play 2.Kxa2 and avoid the mate.
then its Ra7# cuz the knight is blocking b3

I guess people like to make everything complicated. forkman and chessnoob1997, those are the bottom 2 puzzles of the first page, i can see a mate in 1 in both puzzles. On forkmans 1.Nd6# and on chessnoob1997's 1.Rxh5#.
