Indeed. The question is: f2 or f7?

Sometimes there’s a glitch in the mate-rix: Bishop Thingy delivers checkmate as well.

@Sarg0n Since it takes more energy to move the queen (it's a heavy piece after all), Bxf7# is to be preferred in such a case.

Yeah, I find it more stylish to use the Bishop if possible. Noobs use the Queen usually.

Now you know. :)

I saw a fool's mate once, and multiple mates using rook and knight as well. All #1's are valid captchas I think.
