I always enjoy looking at recent checkmates on the introductory page of this site. I would like to have access to all games ending with checkmate. It would also be nice to be able to get the final FEN.

Check it out.

Click Public Games above
click 'finished only'
I got a fine list of mate games finished today.

If that page also had a choice of mate games, resign, and time out like our view game page we'd be all set... as well as a box to be able to email them.

Great! It would be nice too to see drawn games. Some of my most interesting games have been draws.

It would be interesting to see these endings categorized into common patterns like those identified by Danny Kopec.

Maybe add a minimum rating to Public Games, Finished Only, Mini boards. This would be simple to add for the time being.
