H.Juel: If Black may castle, last move was not made by Ke8 or Ta8, but by Pd5, so it was d7-d5, and hence White may capture en passant. 1... exd6ep 2.0-0-0 dxe7 3.Tf8 exf8=D,T# where the castling (belatedly) justifies the e.p. capture.

VL: The first AP-problem! Thematic illegal try:
1. ... exd6ep 2.Kd8? dxe7+ 3.Kc8 e8=T(D)#?? (2007-02-11)
Mario Richter: 46 years between this Problem and P1366663 - perhaps this was not Keeble's first AP-Problem?! (2019-08-29)
Ladislav Packa: Of course I know the idea a posteriori. But let my heresy be forgiven - I do not consider it logical. In this particular example, I consider e.p. for proof that black can castling - not vice versa. (2019-08-29)
A.Buchanan: Hi Ladislav. If ep is ok, then Black just moved a pawn with double hop. That doesn't stop Black having e.g. moved bK right at the beginning of the game. So you can't prove that Black definitely can castle this way. What am I missing here? (2019-08-29)
Ladislav Packa: Your statement is perfectly fine. However, the AP condition is usually interpreted as castling is evidence of e.p. However, the second party does not have to do castling - the possibility has already been demonstrated by the existence of e.p. (2019-08-29)
A.Buchanan: Hi again Ladislav. Please try again, I am obviously being very stupid. I don't understand how 1. exd6ep is any more indicative that Black can castle than 1. K~. (2019-08-30)
Ladislav Packa: Hi, Andre!
e.p. is just a result of the d7-d5 move. Black can castle only if it was the last move of black (even without wPe5). Therefore, it does not have the logic of joining the e.p. with castling. For example, ask yourself if black is allowed to castle in the position without wPe5. (2019-08-30)
A.Buchanan: @Ladislav: ep is not "proof that black can castle", rather it is a *necessary* condition for Black to be able to castle. The logical implication is the other way round. We can castle because of the optimistic convention, and because sPd might just have moved. Without wPe, there is no solution, but whatever White plays, Black can castle (2020-12-11)
Hans-Jürgen Manthey: was heißt hier Thematisch Illegal ??
Mir völlig wurscht ob ep möglich oder nicht, nach dem weißen Zug ist natürlich Kd8 möglich !!
also ist auch 1. ... exd6ep 2. Kd8 dxe7+ 3. Kc8 e8DT# eine Lösung, sonst müßte auf die erzwungende Rochade in der Aufgabenstellung hingewiesen werden ! (2020-12-11)
A.Buchanan: Can one tolerate “tolerated dual promotion” in Valladao? Well Valladao himself did, so it must be ok (2022-03-26)

Erich Bartel: Hier wird der Vorwurf unnötigerweise auf 4 Züge aufgebläht. Zudem
ist in dieser Aufgabe kein kritischer Zug vorhanden,denn das kritsche
Feld g5 wird nur geräumt, nicht überschritten. Des weiteren ist der
Zug 1.h2 vollkommen irrelevant und überflüssig, da er mit dem Thema
nichts zu tun hat.Vielleicht war dies alles seinerzeit ein Grund,
dieser Aufgabe einen 2.Preis (?!)zu geben. (\eb)

A.Buchanan: Henrik: I love these many-handed accomplishments: please can you tell us more about the creative process whereby 7 composers collaborated on the arrangement of just 5 pieces? (2021-03-30)
Henrik Juel: I only saw your comment today, Andrew
Most of these small problems with many authors came about as a result of a sort of theme tourney, and that is also the case here
The TD editor, Holger Helledie, posed several construction exercises with very short deadlines
Here he asked for a helpmate problem with two black S promotions and minimal force
The theoretical minimal force would be KP-KPP, but nobody submitted this
The second best is KS-KPP, and six participants indepently found this problem
Holger had found it himself, so he is included as author
The winner of this exercise was the strong finnish composer, Unto Heinonen, with KL-KPP (2021-04-25)
Henrik Juel: Unto's problem was P0504865 (2021-04-25)
A.Buchanan: Thank you for the details. So the mental picture I had was incorrect: a troupe of composers muttering around a single chessboard, irascibly nudging a smaller number of pieces from square to square. (2021-04-25)

Kommentare:
Als einziger letzter schwarzer Zug, der die weiße Rochade
erhält, kommt nur Bh7-h5 infrage, was dem Weißen den e.p.-Schlag
ermöglicht, um nicht die Rochade oder das Mattnetz zerstören zu
müssen (H.P.Suwe)
Gianni Donati: This intends to show the Valladao theme in the minimum number of moves. (2004-03-19)
VL: The waiting ep capture. Cf. also P1000260
(by T.Petrovic, 2000) somewhat enriched
thematically with the illegal try 2... Rd1#??. (2004-06-03)
A.Buchanan: The “illegal try” 2. Rd1+ is not actually mate because c2 is unprotected. This is kind of “logic dual” spoils the A.P. motivation for the castling (2020-05-20)
Henrik Juel: White captured h6xg7 and once more, e.g. axPb-b8=Y
Black captured cxdxe, dxexf, fxg, and once more, e.g. a2xb1=Y
Possible retroplay 1... h7-h5 2.h6xSg7 Df8-f4 3.h5-h6 Sf4-h3 4.Sh3-g1 etc., preserving the castling right
Any other black last move would force White to retract Ta1, as d2xc3, d2xe3, and h6xh7 would be illegal retractions
I agree with Andrew that the double motivation of 2... 000# is a weakness:
a. legitimizing h7-h5
b. mating (2020-05-21)
Vaclav Kotesovec: Similar problems should not be labeled as "C+". Such a designation is only acceptable if the entire analysis was performed by a computer program. (2023-08-03)

Auf welchen Feldern darf der sK nicht stehen, da die Stellung dann illegal wäre?
Es sind die 12 Felder a2,a3,a4,a6,d2,d3,e2,f2,h2,h3,h5,h6.
Auf Feld f3 steht der schwarze König legal weil das Doppelschach
Se2-g1 möglich wäre.

A.Buchanan: Thanks Shankar, I could translate the stipulation. But now the penny has dropped that it means reach a drawing position, not a draw. But normally after ser-goal in n moves, it is formally Black to move. E.g. ser-# in n, or ser-= in n. But here, the rule is broken: it's White to move to sneak a 5th move in. After 4. c6 with Black to move as usual, there is 4. ... Qh3+/Qh7+. So I think it should be ser-draw in 5. I will mark it as a study as well as fairies. (2023-04-08)

Null Züge! Denn schon die PAS ist ein Legal Cluster!

Correction:
Problemkiste, Issue 91, Februar 1994, Seite 128, Abteilung Bemerkungen & Berichtigungen
"Nr. 3212 [sic!] v.Gruber/Müller: wie HG mitteilt muß die Bedingung "KAMIKAZE REX INCLUSIV" heißen, nicht Kamikaze-Circe rex inclusiv. Letzteres wäre nicht nur ein Zuviel an Bedingungen, sondern auch noch UL, weil da auch 31-steinige Stellungen möglich sind."
Dieser Eintrag wird also mit der Korrektur aktualisiert!
Erich Bartel: Das war ein schöner Tag am 21.8.1993 bei Hans Gruber zusammen mit Frank Müller und ich bedanke mich recht herzlich für die Widmung, die mir ausgezeichnet schmeckt, fast so gut wie der super delikate Original-Zwetschgendatschi von Hansens Mutter!!!(\eb) (2007-03-04)
A.Buchanan: I don't get this: please can someone explain (2020-12-09)
Henrik Juel: Under the Kamikaze-Circe condition, where both captured and capturing man are reborn after a capture, the initial game array is legal, but removing one man gives an illegal position, so the IGA is a legal cluster
I have no info about the super delicate original Zwetschgendatschi from Hansen's mother (2020-12-09)
A.Buchanan: Hi Henrik, please clarify the rules for the middle part. Why is e.g. 1. a4 b5 axb5[sBb7] with the white pawn disappearing because it can't be reborn on occupied b2? Is it because the rebirth square for capturer is taken to be the start square not the end square of the move? That seems unlikely because I read in PDB that promotion counts before capturer's rebirth. The other possibility is that capture is illegal if the capturer cannot be reborn, but that seems inconsistent with the spirit of Kamikaze. Normally in Circe, a captured piece doesn't come back if the rebirth square is occupied. That surely would still apply here. Glossary is silent on all this. Thanks! (2020-12-09)
Henrik Juel: I think you are right, Andrew, so the IGA is not a legal cluster under Kamikaze-Circe, and the problem is cooked
In the more serious matter at hand, Zwetschgendatschi means plum cake... (2020-12-09)
A.Buchanan: I can't believe that serious fairy heavyweights such as were engaged in this problem would have made something cooked. And I still don't know what K-C actually is. I will ask HG. Maybe he has some comments on plum cake too? :-) (2020-12-09)
A.Buchanan: Henrik has also been copied on an email from Hans Gruber which states in part:
"The problem by Frank and me (PDB: P1013968) is cooked - the intended solution does not work, because the initial game array is NOT a legal cluster under Kamikaze-Circe rex inclusive. Of course this was unavoidable, as dedication problems always are unsound. We should have known that before but did not see in-how-far we were wrong. It is good to learn about that a bit more than a quarter of a century after. I dare to state, without consulting Frank, that there will be no correction to the problem. The basic idea "initial game array = legal cluster" just does not work." (2020-12-09)
Arnold Beine: Perhaps the problem can be fixed by changing the fairy condition into "Platzwechselcirce rex inklusiv". Then every position with 31 pieces is illegal and the IGA should be legal. (2020-12-09)
Henrik Juel: The problem can probably be saved just by changing the condition to Strict Kamikaze-Circe RI (2020-12-09)
A.Buchanan: What is the exact rule for Kamikaze-Circe please? And how does strict differ? (2020-12-09)
Henrik Juel: In Kamikaze-Circe, as part of a capture, the capturer is reborn if its rebirth square is empty (otherwise it vanishes), and the captured is reborn if its rebirth square is empty (otherwise it vanishes). The rebirth squares are the standard Circe ones (based on the capture square).
Strict Kamikaze-Circe additionally stipulates that a capture is possible only when both rebirth squares are empty; so the piece count never changes (2020-12-09)
A.Buchanan: Thanks Henrik: that doesn't sound very "strict" Kamikaze, sounds like "no-sharp-edges video-game" Kamikaze, where no-one actually can get hurt :) Regular Kamikaze RI is trivially a legal cluster, no? And more interestingly, ordinary Kamikaze is a legal cluster too, because if just one piece is removed, that must have been captured by the *other* king, who is still stuck in his cage. That would be my suggested fix (2020-12-10)
Henrik Juel: Yes, any condition where 31 men cannot occur in a game would do
I chose strict K-C, because that was the most simple change to K-C (2020-12-10)
A.Buchanan: Strict K-C RI the number of pieces for each side must always be the same. K RX you can certainly have 31 pieces on the board but not in game array position. It’s still very simplistic but it’s a bit more subtle (2020-12-10)

A.Buchanan: A small group of similar problems forces some short Round Trip across past and forward play. The last move is not uniquely defined (it may be a capture) and is not mentioned in the stipulation. However the genre includes retro. This means that an aesthetic criterion (e.g. existence of Round Trip) can define whether a composition is subject to 50 move rule or dead position rule! (2021-10-31)

Richter:Frank Müller:
Die Plazierung dieser Aufgabe, die letztendlich ein innerer Kompromiß
ist, bereitete mir die größten Schwierigkeiten. Ich konnte nie das
Gefühl loswerden, daß die zweite Lösung wegen ihrer Ähnlichkeit (aber
ohne vollständige Analogie) lediglich die Kultivierung einer
schemabedingten Nebenlösung ist. Ich gestehe, daß ich bei nur einer
Lösung diese Aufgabe höher eingestuft hätte. Andererseits wollte ich
dieses Problem nicht zu weit rückstufen.
Die Darstellung der dreifachen Bahnung auf der Grundreihe für den
schwarzen König macht den besonderen Reiz der Aufgabe. Hinzu kommt
Schachschutz auf g2 für 10.Kf2 einmal durch den Lf1, zum anderen durch
die Umwandlungsfigur. Hingegen erfolgt der Schachschutz für den wKa8
einmal direkt durch einen Auswahlzug der Umwandlungsfigur (2.Sf3), zum
anderen indirekt durch die Wahl der Umwandlungsfigur (1.g1=D? 3.Dg2+).

Löserstimmen:
Turton im Hilfsmatt, da bist du platt (HM).
Turmdoppel - "`Geh' Du voran"' nach "`Schwabenart"'! (HJS).
Turmverdoppelung mittels kritischem Zug, hat das Bakcsi erstmals
dargestellt? (TS). -- Das wissen wir nicht, aber Diagramm ^{lsH})
war der Anlass unserer Bemühung (Erich Bartel).
Dieser dreizügige Brunner-Turton ist eine thematisch glasklare
Verbesserung zum Vorläufer (NG).
Gute Strategie, aber halt nur einphasig (H.Axt)... ja, ja, wir
hoffen, das Ding reizt Dich, lieber Hemmo, zu einer zweiphasigen
Darstellung. Wir freuen uns schon darauf
(Elmar Bartel, Erich Bartel).;
Erich Bartel: Bakcsi siehe P0500201 (2010-08-01)

Wettspiel in 2 Zügen: Wer die Forderung (in Kenntnis der P1166865) für unlösbar hielt, verlor seinen Wetteinsatz.
"Item si staret albus in C (= h6, Red.), matteratur, non dicendo scac de rocco in A (= f7, Red.), sed capiendo militem primo tractu, et secundo esset mat in A."
In diese Stellung will der Kompilator eingedenk der Stellung des Bonus socius (die er in seiner Sammlung als 34. Aufgabe zitiert) nun einen "umgepolten" sBc5 einfügen, der nach 1.Txg7 mit c5-c6 die Drohung 2.Sd7 pariert, so dass kein Matt im 2.Zug möglich ist: "Si autem esset pedo niger in puncto (= c5, Red.) uadens ut signatum est, non fieret, quia posset eum trahere".
Wie sehr die Kompilatoren ihren Vorlagen verhaftet sind und im eigentlichen Sinne nicht komponieren, belegt dieses Stück, denn die Einfügung eines Ministers auf b5 oder eines Elefanten auf d3 würden den nämlichen Zweck ohne Zusatzbedingung erfüllen können. Aber in solchen Kriterien dachte man seinerzeit noch nicht, weil die Aufgabe eben nur eine Wettvorlage war. (H.P.Suwe)

Gunter Jordan: Nochmals als Original veröffentlicht in Springaren 144 (06/2017), Nr. 13927! (2018-01-20)
Gunter Jordan: Bei der Veröffentlichung des Selbstplagiates in Springaren erhielt die Aufgabe von Henry Tanner ein Lob (siehe Springaren 165, 03/2023, Seite 14). (2023-11-15)
Gunter Jordan: Da der Autor bereits 2009 verstarb, kann er diese Doppeleinsendung nicht selbst getätigt haben. Es gab vor Jahren an Springaren eine Sammeleinsendung (eines anderen Autors), in der sich mehrere vermeintlich unveröffentlichte Aufgaben serbischer Autoren befanden. Wahrscheinlich ist dabei ein Fehler unterlaufen. (2023-11-15)
