http://en.lichess.org/training/43554The solution is fxe4 but I played Rxe4. The computer gives first as -7 and second as -6. Why do such puzzles even exist?
Yeah that's just a poor puzzle. Both captures are winning with only tiny gains with fxe4
I don't even get how this is a puzzle. There's no puzzle. Is someone not taking the queen? I don't understand
http://ru.lichess.org/training/38449After 1. ... a2 2.Rxe7 a1Q+ 3.Kc2 Qa4+ 4.Kc1 Rxe7 5.Qb8+ Re8 6.Nxe8 puzzle off. But it is not win for black. 6. ... Qxe8 7.Qd6+ Qe7 8. Qb8+ ... it's draw.
http://ru.lichess.org/training/374941.Qg4 is correct solution.
But 1.ef win too correct solution same way. But lichess said, it is incorrect((
There are a lots of puzzles that have several good ways to win and some are marginally better, if you reach 2k3 puzzle rating, and apparently a lot of people fail those.
http://en.lichess.org/training/4248http://en.lichess.org/training/15498I wish they would get rid of the puzzles and the variants... but I'm just one person (the only person?!) who likes proper chess :D
You aren't the only one...I've always been against these new fangled variants, but they just keep growing in spite of my grumpiness...
