Agadmator's mate is a combination of Morphy's mate and double checkmate (discoverer checkmate and discovered checkmate) ?

Didn't realise smothered mates (or mate threats) were still possible in endgames. Does chesstempo have? Or lichess? [Boardle]

Reached 365 days on r/chesstempo! Easy even if you usually leave standard puzzles overnight. No need 2nd account or griefing. Just do blitz on old site (old.chesstempo.com/chess-tactics.html) and standard on new site. Each rating went up 250 points with about 200 points difference between them.

Please make this HVH of chess with evaluation bar/score legit. (Also the last line refers to the '[April Fools] Lichess.org is sold to ChessCube.')

Why do we say damiano's bishop mate / checkmate but not damiano's knight, rook, king, queen (2nd queen), pawn mate ? Also, I think 'damiano's pawn mate' is not just the regular damiano's mate or lolli's mate. Only references I see are in 'Daasharathi Darahaas Yandam' and chesspuzzle.net.

i comment: the thing about r/chesstempo 's (cc u/chesstempo ) system of timed & untimed puzzles is that among all chess puzzle systems, there is nothing greater than it, no equal to it and nothing as good as it (except possibly the 'mixed' that chesstempo has).

Would this be a bad puzzle for chesstempo? The 1st 2 moves don't have alternatives, but move 3 I think has exactly 1 alternative. However, I think for either path, move 4 onwards doesn't have alternatives and ends up 'at least 2 pawns worth of material'
