<Dave> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 99 moves (old: 114). First solve |
 |
<Dave> (SPOILER) Mark, look up Martin Gardner. Better still, look up some of his books. You will find a lot of stuff which has been implemented on Escape. You may find things you can implement yourself. I do have one level inspired by these papers sitting in /mylevels, one day it will get round to cookproofing it... |

<Dave> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 294 moves (old: 301). Changed the second part of Jim's part in place of my last part :) <Jim> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 301 moves (old: 316). I just changed Dave's last part, very fun level! |

<mark> Escape not just a game but an education.. I did not know who Reuben Garrett Lucius was. I'd never heard of a turing machine I thought at first it was touring spelt wrong. Now i know who C Dudley Langford is... I must admit i did read the puzzle on Langtons cube's. I did not really understand what was meant until after solving the level,and a google search produced nothing. Langford's cubes a different matter,short clip on youtube to explain. |

<N7DOT> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 476 moves (old: 536). Removing the unneeded blue panel activation. I do have to complement Gil on exploiting the ability to go direct to the 4th room, which I worried might happen, but I don't think that's too big of a deal. |
 |
<N7DOT> oops, that was meant for 'langton' cubes level... <N7DOT> Just realized, it should be Langford, not Langton. |

<mark> (SPOILER) Added solution "Different": Totally different...Don't think anyone had chance to catch this. <Gil Anthony> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 536 moves (old: 627). Nice puzzles and I'm sure someone can beat my speed record <mark> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 627 moves (old: 664). Scrub last comment here is my opening bid. <mark> (SPOILER) Nice puzzle,i did not do any room as intended but got stuck in the second room so long no chance of any speedrun.Had to view original solution to see the twist at the end as there was not one the way i solved. |

<mark> Hi N7DOT,from your last couple of comment's about the chat level and it being buried i'm guessing you don't know this. When in any directory instead of scrolling down press Ctrl + a .... Sorts out into alphabetical order. Press any letter you like jumps straight to it.For example you want to play Saftey glass by Tom 7 in the triage. Open up triage..Ctrl + a....press...s there it is. Just in case anyone else does not know. Ctrl + t ..... sorts by author. Ctrl + v ..... sorts your unsolved to the top. <Dave> (SPOILER) Nice one N7. Mini Puzzles is a strange level (this is meant as a compliment): Room 1 is brilliant, room 2 is just irritating, room 3 ..., room 4 is room 4, the end twist is cool. There are so many ways of solving this we'll be swapping speedruns for ever more. Cheers! <N7DOT> (SPOILER) I'd love to see a 'learn a trick' based off the slider trick in AMC 22 (3551) - but of course, I would be fine if you don't want to make one, Dave. After all, we wouldn't want anything to be too much of a spoiler! |

<N7DOT> (SPOILER) Yeah, I assumed this was for Longer Baggage Handling and not Nice. <Dave> (SPOILER) I assume this is relevant to the Baggage Handling series, it's not going to help anyvbody with Nice Cote D'Azur. The trick behind Nice Cote D'Azur has never been reused (to the best of my knowledge), and I would be happy for it to stay that way. <N7DOT> (SPOILER) easy but a good example. While the same sort of pause in activation is a major part of Nice Cote d'Azur International Airport level, in that case the button is in a much more inconvienient location, as the button is not right above the spot where the player will be when the shift occurs. |

<N7DOT> Nnnnnnnggggghhh... stupid hugbots have to be so hard to keep at a distance when turning :( |

<N7DOT> I'm not really in a position where I can easily play spades, but as I have enough active interests and addictions that maybe that's a good thing :P One of the things I have been playing quite a bit of recently is Tom's implementation of scrabble called Muddle. You can play alone or with others online and try to find 'cool words' or new words. It says it's cooperative but it can be competitive too. <Dave> (SPOILER) I'm liking spades (only been playing against computer opponents). The nil bid is a nice twist. I don't imagine it would be so easy to pull off against human players. Anyway, I have to leave it alone, I've enough addictions already. I was fooled by LaT18 too. I spent at least 5 minutes just staring at the screen before it dawned on me. This wouldn't be so bad if wasn't a trick I've used myself... Mark, in the unlikely event I ever find myself at a loose end in Coventry, beer and crib it is; crib players are few and far between these days. |

<Gil Anthony> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 12 moves (old: 43). LOL you could just make it eaiser huh? |
 |
<N7DOT> (SPOILER) While your solution is a good one, I was looking for it to be harder (needing more manipulation). But there's nothing that can be done to fix that, as the level was supposed to be simple and there's nothing that can be done to change it. Although a different shape would require a different method... (save that for me, please :P) |

<Jim> (SPOILER) I finally got 16.1 and 16.2 - whew. |
 |
<Jim> (SPOILER) I liked this one a lot, it seemed impossible when I first looked at it. |
