<Jasonbot> (SPOILER) Cook: There's an extra gray block I don't need.

<Doom> (SPOILER) Cook: The level seemed really too easy. I pushed the green block down in the beginning and then the yellow block on the right up. Then I pushed 2 more blocks and the exit was open.

<mjn> (SPOILER) Whoa, I hadn't even realized you could send a blue over.

I was able to get two reds across in this one, though--was that intended?
<Max> (SPOILER) Cool mod, Jason. I love having a hard time solving a level that I had a hand in designing. I think this beats the original. I used an extra blue sphere to cover one of the right panels, just in case this happens to be a cook...?

<Max> Yeah, I think Imaginary Level, this, and Steel Cage Match constitute a Cute Phase, hopefully complete now...

<Tom 7> (SPOILER) I thought of making a sequel where you have to push another panel, but it's too obvious. You can easily send one of the red spheres over as well. Did I cook it?
<jcreed> (SPOILER) I observed that I could get two blue spheres over on the right side rather than the one that was (seemed?) necessary for the original puzzle. If anyone can get three or more over there, I'd like to see it.
<jcreed> Unless I made a mistake, this is a slightly difficultized version of Max's "Scuba Diving".

<jcreed> Cute.
 
Steel Cage Match Tue 22 Mar 2005 22:22
<Tom 7> OMG trivial
<Max> This isn't a particularly challenging or enlightening level. I just had to use that title! And it's fun to kick some dalek butt every now and then, too.

<Max> No guessing!

<Tom 7> Escaped!

<Hiro> Nonsensical deaths

<Tom 7> Actually, all of the graphs I've made so far (probably 5+) have had multiple disjoint cycles. If only I could put those bonus points to good use!

<Tom 7> (SPOILER) jason: the top two can get stuck into the panels because they're recessed; only the bottom two need to be held there with blocks.

Using the bots to pull out wires could totally work, though, maybe I should try that...
<Max> YES!!!!!!!!!!!! Solved! Wow, this level is awesome. Very aptly named; it really forces you to learn about the intricacies of daleks. The color scheme is great, it's totally unique, and an enjoyable (though initially frustrating!) challenge. Great job, Joshua!

<bpotetz> Two cycles? It sounds like you should get bonus points. Don't lose hope!
 
Dalek Research Lab Tue 22 Mar 2005 18:25
<bpotetz> Wow. I feel I've learned a lot about daleks now. Tough!
 
Pipeworks Tue 22 Mar 2005 18:24
<bpotetz> Clever! This is one of my favorite pipe puzzles now.
 
Grand Prix (v2) Tue 22 Mar 2005 18:22
<bpotetz> This level is fun to play and neat to look at.
 
Dalek Research Lab Tue 22 Mar 2005 17:13
<Max> (SPOILER) Well, Mr. Reed, I was thinking more along the lines of somehow, with the aid of another dalek, getting a gray block right on top or below a dalek that has gotten on a panel, thereby trapping it. This is certainly necessary on the two panels on the bottom half of the level, as otherwise the daleks will come off them as you try to get in the exit. So in theory, the last dalek, maybe even the last two daleks, won't need helpers. But at this point it still seems completely impossible...
<jcreed> (SPOILER) Tom: The question I have with that solution theory is, how do you get the last robot into place if every robot needs a helper?

Another thing I've tried unsuccessfully to do is to get a dalek into the column of wires in order to push one (or more) out.
<jcreed> Holy shit this is hard.

<Max> (SPOILER) There certainly has been quite an influx of extremely hard levels lately. Are you sure the server is checking solutions correctly? ;)
