Rapid game.Very good job!
Yeah, the fastest path to mate is with 33. ..Rxg3+, so the windmill captures didn't matter at all. Still, I can't say that I wouldn't have made them in your place. Windmills are such a rare tactic, might as well have some fun while you can.

This is a windmill because he did not played rxg3 immediately.
Technically:33.....,rxb2 makes it a windmill.
33.....rxg3 is just a discovered check leading to a quicker victory.

Agreed. It’s a shame that the better tactics either result in an instant checkmate so that you cannot truly savor them or result in resignations, so that you cannot truly savor them.
