Am I missing something after Qf1+? King is forced, Rook mates on 2nd move.

Yes, you are missing something. You sure you set this up right? Or am I supposed to NOT mate in 2 and try to mate in 3 for kicks?

That's the one I found. I'm confused because the person posting this puzzle is rated 2000+.
It's Mate in TWO!~
All those mates except Rook coming off the g column work with the Queen on e1 and d1 also.
