<Frodo> (SPOILER) Added speedrun: 170 moves (old: 174).
This is an insteresting level to play.

Well... it's hard to sqeeze these 2 steps.

1 less step then the original speed run
<FrodoGreat> (SPOILER) The level size is a little too big...

"Daleks can learn how to do Sokoban now?"

"Does that mean we're all doomed?"

<Tom 7> Also, btw, nice run!

<Tom 7> (SPOILER) I have not yet regretted the maximum solution size limit... ;)

<Tom 7> Very nice. Now I can take DES off my level to-do list. :)
 
Tutorial 17: Daleks Sat 07 Mar 2009 09:11
<Tom 7> I actually don't mind at all if people spoil or provide hints for the tutorial levels, because those are about teaching you how to play, not about puzzling. (Well maybe a little about puzzling.) But I deleted the solution in the comment because FrodoGreat requested.

The dialog is asking for you to describe how you subverted the level designer's intent if you think that you "cooked" the level.

<gary> (SPOILER) John Lewis has uploaded a solution related to the original which is easily solved.
<wowei> (SPOILER) someone went fishing for solution, it seems, and someone else swallowed the bait.

<wowei> nice puzzle, Julie. keep on keeping on with those!
 
block cipher Sat 07 Mar 2009 08:17
<wowei> hey this looks like a well designed crypt-machine. i especially like the way the number of bits is disguised when entering the key; perhaps a bit paranoid but nice and funny too.

but i dont think, it gives very strong encryption.

it reminds of DES with a 63 bit key and 24 bit salt or 7 s-boxes and going for 16 rounds. but the resamblence ends herewith, i think.

DES uses the same function for cryption and decryption only with its subkeys in opposite order from round to roind. and there doesnt exist an inverted function. means:

(i=input or cleartext, k=key, o=output or cipher)

fik(i, k) -> o doesnt have an inversion
fok(o, k) -> i

it seems very likely that an inverted function (fok) exists in your machine. and that weakens the strength of cryption and gives a point for attacking it. it even increases the probability of the existence of

fio(i, o) -> k

which would ruin the crytion. Nevertheless i dont believe, i will be able to solve this puzzle, and thatswhy i hate your machine! ;)

brute force, hahaha. dont you people think before writing?

does your key contain any message at least, pieguy?

<radiant> (SPOILER) I would have uploaded a solution that finishes in 42,776 moves (this level falls victim to the same trap I succumbed to in Assembly Line v1), but of course the server doesn't let you do that. Why must an hour of pushing buttons back and forth, while looking for other ways to kill time, be for naught?

I'm sorry, but this is just hilarious...

Correction...this is definitely optimal, and has a neat stalling position

This is probably optimal
