  I feel your frustration N7! You really need to be old like me, I still use the old version of escape on an old computer, and everything works great. The new version that only allows 1 save is crazy, it takes so much longer to solve any hard level because of that limitation. I'm not sure why Tom can't fix that, or at least make the old version of Escape available again.

Right now I'm really frustrated over this level, not because of the level being bad, but cause I'm really angry at escape abruptly overwriting my progress IMMEDIATELY after I had finally gotten to where I wanted to be - I was going to bookmark, but when I was finishing, I accidentally hit enter instead of arrow keys (laptop layout problems...) and then without realizing it overwrote it as I pressed the final key.

What's worse is there's no way to express my anger right now and so it's just making me extremely uncomfortable since it feels like trying to let it out through writing just would make me sound stupid and I can't let it out in any other way without either waking everyone up or hurting myself... and it feels like anything could set that off which makes it feel just horrible...

It now feels as if it's literally impossible to do what I managed, which is making me even more irritated.

The level itself seems pretty clever, I have yet to solve it (in part due to the issues mentioned in the venting above).

  Mark, this was an incredibly hard level. It took us one week in edit with making many modifications to even solve it that way. I would rate it a level nine to even be even able to solve it in edit. For anyone who wants to solve, that is a good challenge. It took us an additional two weeks to solve after that. We still couldn't believe that it could be accomplished. Fantastic level Mark!

  Mark, thanks for the information, but we decided it would be easier if we went through our 800 moves over the phone.

  Both my brother and I have been working on this level. He wants to show me his latest bookmark so he sent me an attachment file called level4084.esx. How do I open this, my computer asks me what program I want to use to open it?
