  This is definitely the most difficult level since I joined Escape! Haven't solved it yet, but I keep on trying...

I found the same cook for the second contact and was thinking about a mod as well, but it's already done :-)

  Yeah this is a great mod. I must admit I was a little ashamed of my original simple solution. I came up with the mechanism first and then a series of complex almost-solutions, and I really wanted to have a complex solution like this but when I found my original solution, rather than cook-proof it I just decided to stick with it.

This definitely has an "advanced" aspect that I enjoy in certain Escape levels where the whole level revolves around a single rule that the player is tricked into believing is slightly stricter than it really is...
