<mark> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 1222 moves (old: 1266). original |
 |
<Dave> Then again, I only discovered ctrl-e today, so what do I know? <Dave> The MD5s are different... can't make sense of it yet. Another inexplicable thing: A couple of days ago I 'lost' all solutions to gnomme deux. No other levels, just that one... <Dave> I did just ctrl-0 it no problem. Funny thing is when I did that my solution and my tick against the second version mysteriously disappeared. So, I tried deleting all solutions from all of these levels except for my original solve of the first one, close escape, go back in, and the solutions are gone for all the levels except for my 1548 first solve of the original. However, every time I ctrl-0 anyb of them your 1222 run pops up from nowhere. Got me stumped! <Jim> (SPOILER) Sorry Dave, you cant CTRL 0 this one, if its any consolation, I had to do it over again too. A weird thing happened to me on modular thinking 15, after I uploaded that it didn't even show that I solved it when I got back into that level. It didn't save any bookmarks for that level either. |

<Jim> 'Return of the Red Balloon' uploaded by Jim: Sorry again, this is the last time I promise. |
 |
<Jim> Moved to graveyard: Oops again. |

|
<Dave> Hi Jim, I just ctrl-0ed your upload but to be fair I rated as previous because I didn't spot the mistake the first round! |
 |
<Dave> (SPOILER) Oops! It just got funnier. Just watched Kirima's speedrun: I utterly failed to notice the changes on the far left. Why do I always do things the hard way?! Still, why use 2 daleks when 3 are available anyway? |

<Jim> 'Return of the Red Balloon' uploaded by Jim: Try again, sorry for the confusion. |

<Jim> Moved to graveyard: Lost a blue piece. <mm> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 1130 moves (old: 1222). <Dave> Guess we've a few more level titles now, are you planning on continuing this? <Dave> (SPOILER) Thanks Jim, I really enjoyed that. Thought I was cooking it only to find out that the 'cook' is the proper solution. Very funny! <Jim> 'Return of the Red Balloon' uploaded by Jim: This is easier than the original and can be cooked a bit, but I have decided to include it anyway for your enjoyment. |
 |
<Jim> 'Modular Thinking 15' uploaded by Jim: And now a tad tighter too. |
 |
<Dave> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 1251 moves (old: 1814). A little bit tidier |
|
|
<Dave> PS. My first, and so far only solve, was about 1900 moves and the same as yours in the important aspects. May try and tidy it up later if I have time. <Dave> Nice job Mark! The ratings are a realistic comment on the series at this stage, and not about the job you did :) Even though I started with a pretty good idea of how to attack it, it still took a while. I think that has formally answered the question about whether we should stop at this point with a very loud and resounding NO. I would have been extremely surprised if 13 didn't have a cook of this nature, it was never intended as a fait accompli, which is why made no comment on the subject of stopping. Will leave 13 up just for now to see if anybody wants to keep it as an intermediate level. Onward... The respite from all the 'mods' yestertday did give me a chance to finally knock off The Wrong Parity. Pen and paper solution took about 5 hours in the end, would have been quicker if I hadn't completely missed the whopper of a clue in the title! Two more to go before I finally have no choice but to make an attempt at Block Cipher. Also finally downloaded the SDL libraries, so I may have a tinker with the source code. How's your triage quest going? <mark> (SPOILER) Spent quite a while playing 13 the wrong way to see if i could do it differently, so i could make a mod for you to play Dave. Hope you get even a third of the enjoyment i did out of "Red Balloon" |

<mark> 'Modular Thinking 14' uploaded by mark: My solution a bit scruffy,who can tidy it up for me. |
 |
<mm> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 794 moves (old: 803). Got it :) |
 |
<noname> It should be "occurred". I guess a claim for misspelling must itself contain some mispeling. <noname> Moved to graveyard: It just occured to me that I misspelled Jim's name in the author field. Well, this mod isn't that great anyway, so I'm not going to upload a replacement. |
 |
<Dave> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 70 moves (old: 81). |
