Hey, Doomforge! Are you cheating?
Do you know these positions by heart or are you an international chess player or else? There must be something behind your superiority

Nawww, all I do is trying to get the bigger picture from the given image. You can see a lot of stuff simply by doing so (Hint:If Keldorn hints you can do a finishing move pay attention to the king, see if some of the fields around him are under pressure, check what moves can you make to apply a check and see what will he be forced to do to avoid checkmate.. will help you a lot with those kind of tasks )

OK, the next exercise. Not too difficult, but you have to see things many moves in advance!
Decide whether you want to be white or black.
Don't give me the explanation of your choice, I'd only like to see your one-word posts for now. (white/black). Thanx.
And Doomforge! Please post later than the others, will you?

haha no prob good luck guys. Btw: who's move is it? it changes the situation dramatically
(hint: Look carefully at the possible moves of the white/black queen after you promote the pawn and the position of both kings.)

Good idea, Doomforge!
You are hereby given the right to post your own puzzles, and give your own hints to our students. I think we'll co-operate together well, causing headache to anyone trying to solve our exercises

If you need your puzzle to be done like my ones, tell me. I'll transfer your ASCII chessboard into a picture, if you want.
