I propose the removal of puzzle 5 unless someone can prove the solution is good (because the bot disagrees strongly).

Yes, I wondered about that too. Arek's a strong player, but with 23 moves in the proposed solution, and nothing approaching a proof that the solution works, it doesn't really qualify as a puzzle. It's more like "here is a game that I won". Selinger (talk) 02:16, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
