Problem needs to be removed.

It requires promotion to a knight on move 2.  And on move 1, promotion to a knight is an allowed alternative.  But I did not even consider trying to get a knight because I thought it's not possible in the interface.

Lost 19 points and the top ranking on this UI technically bad problem.

I agree that is frustrating.  I hadn't intended to let these promotions into the set until I had the UI for promotion implemented (a bug is letting some but not all promotion problems through).  However having said that, I don't think these are bad problems as long as you know that promotion is allowed (you get the promotion type chosen for you at the moment, but it should always chose the 'correct' type). Apologies for the rating loss, I should have made it clearer what the behaviour was when I realised (two days ago) that these problem types were getting let into the set.
