Cycle 7 Complete

The Mate-in-3 problems really aren't that hard, not that I would spot all of them in a blitz game or anything. But it does teach one to focus on the squares around the enemy King. Quite a few of them aren't a series of checks which I imagined they would be when I started. Lots of them contain waiting moves or the sealing off of key squares before the final checks are delivered.

Welcome our newest Knight Druss.

Cycle 8- 0 Down 600 to go.
