Nice!
Fantastic puzzle. Took me about two hours to solve, but I was smiling when I figured it out.

So many different things to address... most of it is a simple quickwork pattern, but there's twists at the end of it. And then, of course, the disaster you have to fix in the first 13 moves.

Truly brilliant.

Practice, Moves, and players that have impossible puzzles.
Well, I have solved this puzzles maybe but finally I solved 100%. You players need a bit more practice to solve the pieces correctly.
I like puzzles that are like hard daily puzzles. It must have at least 10 moves.
Rocksareblue,5030 ,branneke ,mla96,joyyan ,excile, and three3threes have the impossible puzzles. They are like easy daily puzzles.
Hope you wish you have a happy New Year!

Unnecessary long
The point can be made with much less number of moves.. There are Two tricks, the rest is just a waste of time

Compare It to puzzle #229400 , itself inspired by Josef Halumbirek’s puzzle (mate#112)
Here Mr.flkzter has purportedly omitted to mention the original composer’s identity, imitating possibly his leader Mister Chesscode, the king of plagiarism.
Now, if Mr. charleshiggie is so impressed that he wants the puzzle be published in Chess Magazine, he is better of mentioning the name of original composer.
