Solution
 

A Licenser Original, 2006 Did you find the mate-in-eight with 1...Qf4 2.Ra1 Qg4 3.Qf6+ Nxf6 4.g3 Qf3+ 5.Kg1 Rxg3+ 6.hxg3 Ng4 7.Rf1 Qxg3+ 8.Kh1 Qh2#? If so, you get an "A" for effort. But that's not quite the fastest win! 1...Qf3 2.Qf6+ [2.h3 Nf2+ 3.Kh2 Qg3#; 2.gxf3 Nf2#] 2...Qxf6 3.h3 Nf2+ 4.Kh2 Qh4 5.Rf1 Qg3+ 6.Kg1 Qxg2#
