  Thanks -- like I always say, the best thing about torture is that it feels so good when it's over.

A good way to check if your solution is actually a cook is to download the original solution and compare. You can do this by hitting ctrl-m on the load screen after you've solved a level, and then pressing ctrl-d to download all of the solutions.

Also, if you have a solution that's 16 moves faster than the speedrun, you should upload that new record!

  okay, sorry for ruining the suprise. when my first-try solution was 16 moves shorter than the speed record, i just sort of assumed i had cooked it. excellent level, then. it's the kind of level i would create to torture people.

Well, I am glad you like it, at least. =)

  !!!!!!!

Oh my god, that's awesome. I've been tearing my hair out over this one for months; I never once thought of that...

I think this definitely wins the most-evil prize.

  Nope, that's the only solution as far as I know.

  is this level cooked? you can flip the exit, then push a block on top, and flip it over again. i haven't tried to solve it the "obvious" way.

  This is my entry in the 'size to difficulty ratio' category. I think there's lots of exploration to be done in this field...

  Very clever!
