I'm not a good puzzle maker but I'm trying to become better with each problems.

puzzles are hard to make. There's some things that I don't see, so I try to make puzzles for players of my level and behind.

Puzzle #1

I'll add numbers so it's simpler to quote the problems if you find something.

In the 5th puzzle (in post one) 1 ... Ke4 (instead of 1 ... Kxd5) lets Black keep a big advantage.

In the 4th puzzle it was already stated that 1 Qh7# is better than 1 Nf5+.

In post 18 the move 24 Ra8+ (instead of 24 Ra7) lets Black keep the exchange advantage.

In post 24 the supposedly good Nxe8 allows a response of ... Rb1+, Qd1 Rxd1#

In post 25 the moves 1 Qxe4 Bxe4 2 Nd7+ and 3 Nxf8 lets White win a clear rook instead of just a rook for a knight.

In the fifth puzzle you still need to add a White Pawn at f3 to prevent Black playing Ke4.

There's a way in this position to win material in a sequence of moves, using the powerful technique of the pin !

I wanted to thank you @Duckfest and @Jetoba for helping me fix my old problems. I imagine something incorrect and you take some of your time to fix it, so now, I take all my time when I find a good problem to analyse all the possibilities and know what to change so the puzzle works.

(and by the way, it's the biggest quote i've ever see ^^)

M12, using a fork and a pin, and each move is not check.

If you're asking, they are all stockfish moves. the mate is hard to see but the win of the Black Queen is easier.

Avatar of Crowford_Hidden

Win the queen by force.

Hi ! Sorry to be late, I was drawing a profil picture for a friend.

Like I'm late, I'll share with you something.

My first investigation on Chess.com

 

I like to watch the comment on the lessons (and I’m not the only one to). One day, I found a game that was… pretty peinful to watch…

So, I decided to find some informations about the badest player, Vihaan.

Someone (not the one that played against Vihaan) tell me that he was 69. he litteraly said « 69 lol.)

I didn’t believe him so I got to check the profil of this man and I discovered that he played four games with the player that posted the game in the comments. He only losed one.

I watched it and it was NOT the game on the comment, so I discovered that it was a fake game.

This guy, Vihaan, is now 1100, and the other one is 400.

I don't know if the other was trolling (or he was trying to make us believing that Vihaan is a bad player as he isn't), but that was very strange.

Okay, that was my little story, tell me if you want me to put more !

and of course, you can post your stories too, if you want, as long as it stays about chess.

Post #39, what is unusual about somebody being 69 years old?

Avatar of Crowford_Hidden

Not 69 years old, 69 chess rating.

Someone else made this mistake (or joke, I don't know).
