So, I guess the Queen, rooks and pawn were just misplaced.

So, I was so bored that I just went all the way through the daily puzzles chess.com has, and found the first ever daily puzzle that was published on the 8th of May, 2007. But the puzzle isn't even correct lol

The puzzle:

I don't understand how they came up with this as their first ever daily puzzle. Maybe chess.com was so poor back then that they didn't even have engines, but whatever. It is the first ever daily puzzle. So can't say too much.

I found ones from before then
