(btw, my position was illegal, too) That's the whole point of this. It tests to see if you are more of a problem solver or a chess player. I had seen it before and didn't get it then, and it still took me a couple of minutes to remember what it was today.
Edit: You guys started it with the comments.

Joined 04 Nov '08 Moves 20499 Oh dear.
