h#1
Impress me by a) finding out what I wanted to show without needing hints,
b) up the ante "6" (OK, that WAS a hint :-), c) making a #2 of it instead of a
cheap h#1.
NO bonus points for actually solving it :-)

Some time ago I was plying with similar accumulation of errors, in the s#2 Anticirce form, but the outcomes were quite boring. I can look them up as they are unpublished and deemed unworthy of publication in normal print. But as an illustration of debate...
Does anyone know a good problem with such deliberate accumulation of errors?

Black's 2nd move: opens d1-d6, opens e3-c5, closes a1-d4, closes b3-f3 and doubly-opens e4-b4. Plus it opens b5-f1. | | (4) Posted by Hauke Reddmann [Tuesday, Apr 24, 2012 16:30] | @ Juraj: 100%! :-O
Yes, PLEASE add your material. It would be interesting whether
s# (which is, well known, more complicated that n#) can add
even more motifs.
@ Dan: As you see from Jurajs post, I tried to max out the
*different* motifs. (Although, obviously, pin/unpin depends
on line opening/closing, so that's rather academically.)
@myself: So I won't get around composing a #2 with 6 motifs
myself :-)

(= 10+10 ) s#2 Anticirce (10+10)
1.Rb8! zz
1...Rb7 2.Kxb7(Ke1)+ Bxc2(Bc8)#
1...Rc7 2.Kxc7(Ke1)+ Bxc2(Bc8)#
1...Rd7 2.Kxd7(Ke1)+ Bxc2(Bc8)#
Every defence has 5 errors:
- opening Bh4-d8
- opening Rf7-d7
- activating pf3-e2 by unblocking of e7
- hideaway of bRe7 from Bh4 (3.B×e7(Bc1)??)
- allowing capture by wK | | (6) Posted by Hauke Reddmann [Wednesday, Apr 25, 2012 11:18] | ...using Anticirce obviously adds the possibility for
some surplus rebirth motifs.
(BTW, the 2# with 6 motifs I did yesterday at midnight.
No big deal for a supergenius like me :-) I add it here
as soon as someone published it.)

Naturally, it was not my aim to show as many errors in the defences as possible, rather I simply wanted to compose an interesting Anticirce s#2 (as it was once the theme of Wola Gulowska). The accumulation of errors was just one idea I briefly touched. No doubt, if we concentrate on the numbers, 5 should be easily surpassable, 6 too, my estimate is that 10 should be possible (in one variation). | | (9) Posted by James Malcom [Thursday, Apr 2, 2020 00:03]; edited by James Malcom [20-04-02] | BLANK | | (10) Posted by Hauke Reddmann [Monday, Feb 7, 2022 20:10] | Hey, did I let you wait a decade for the announced problem? :-)
