Those are 2. Now make an X between them and g1/a1.

um if you look it wasn't given (someone may have edited their post). But since you were so nice about it I'll refrain from answering any of your questions.

i didn't mean to be rude... i was asking a question. i apologise if you took it as attitude, i obviously wasn't typing clearly. i'm at work and only half thinking while posting here...

thanks... although rechecking the thread, those answers were already given as well... D'OH! not as cool as i thought i was. 😛

90 seconds to find 3, 2move mates (d4, a7 and g7).

Worrying!

It took me close to 4 min to find the first one, the other two came easily after that. I think I'm beginning to understand why I'm so much better at CC than OTB ...

I am not a fast thinker. But as I tell my math students: just because someone else got the answer quicker than you, it does not mean that your answer becaomes wrong, or that his answer is better than yours.
