B1 sorry

On b1 the king is in check. Sadly, there seems to be no way to fix this puzzle. I tried to do it with the aid of the computer, but it was not entirely winning for black and they also had other, almost equally good options. I also want to share one rule of puzzle making (there is a reason that the name isn't "puzzle finding"!). The rule is

In a puzzle, the board should be as clean as possible.
This means that unnecessary pieces and pawns should not be on the board, if not for aestethic reasons. Other kinds of puzzles, where irrelevant pieces are on the board, are better for training, but those are easily provided by Chess.com and Lichess. Clean puzzles are much better for aestethics, and only aestethic puzzles are worthy for publication.

Great

Is it just me, or does comment #61 have a hidden link to a buy site? Is it the spambot's fault or something?! Mods, please change that comment!

Sorry for not being active for a while. I have been pumping up my rating on Lichess a bit, but today I composed a puzzle; a retrograde analysis. The task is to figure out whether the position is legal or not.

Good luck retroing your way to the answer!
