I didn't know how to screenshot, so I will post the PGN. It was a pending puzzle.

Anything is winning, so what is the point of the puzzle? (I played Ke3 for the first move.)
what
50 move rule is a draw if you do anything else: so you need to find the fastest mate
It is move 43 of the 50 move rule: you need a mate in 6, and according to the engine: Ke2 is just that. Ke3 is a mate in 8
How do you know if it is a 50 move rule?
what if it was the first move, you could assume that right?
It's in the FEN, bit if you're ever presented with a mate no matter what type tactic, it's always going to be finding the fastest mate.
