Shortest-proof-game challenge

We declare opposite things, but since my posts contain many fewer grammatical and spelling errors than yours, I guess mine takes precedence.

Both our declarations are silly. I was pointing out the foolishness of your comment in requiring a declaration for what needs to be decided by a consensus.

You should request a vote on your proposal by all readers of this thread. So far, the vote is some large number to one against.

Alright vote everyone! Should all posted positions end in a full number of moves (white to move) or should they all end in half moves (black to move), or does it not matter at all. Post your vote ASAP!!!

In the world of recognized problemists who compose for publication and composition tourneys, a proof game can end with either side to play. But in this thread, we can adopt whatever rules we can agree on, so we can go with something different. My vote is to stick with the usual understanding that a proof game can end with either side to play.

It doesn't matter whose turn it ends with.

it is supposed to be 32.5

i think all positions are fine

This ain't your turf to control.

I think all positions are fine.
Since I have the higher rating I guess mine takes precedence. :-)

i believe all positions must end in half moves (for a satisfyingly symmetric vote of 1-x-1 where x is a large number)

ok

So 4 votes for it doesn't matter and 1 vote for it should be black to move..

Repost; white to move.

Are you sure the SPG for this position ends with White to move? Do you have a proof game, and are you sure it's the shortest possible?

This position is from a forum puzzle. I do not have a proof game. I'm somewhat certain black can promote 6 DSBs to reach this position.

Proof of legality, not at all optimized.

I'm thinking now you just want any proof game that ends with White to play, not necessarily an SPG. It's hard to be sure what you're after. Maybe you could clarify it.

Ideal even if it's Black to play when shortened as much as possible?

hi

Here's a proof game that ends with White to play. I'm not sure how much shorter it can be.
