As it is, I don't see how it can be solved. If only the teleport would put me just above instead of in the hugbot, I'd be home free.
Mazur.

Added solution "alternate murder location":
Whoa, I never realized this before, but I killed the hugbot in a different place (the far right).

Added solution "Pacifist."

4806 Get Off My Back Stephan (391) Tue 06 Dec 2005 00:23 SPOILER

(note: speedrun of 113 moves didn't break record; not added)
It took me ages to figure out how to do this level. This solution, while much longer than the speed run, shows a way to solve it keeping the hugbot with you until the end.

I tought this would be impossible, too - after solving it and realizing that in fact, it's kind of easy, I just can't believe how stupid I've been! ;)

I assure you that all of the levels in triage are possible!

4803 Get Off My Back herreee (759) Sat 03 Dec 2005 22:50

This is impossible. It can't be done!

Optimal.

4188 Get Off My Back Tom 7 (1) Mon 05 Sep 2005 10:05 SPOILER

Of course, the problem is the same as usual: I simply ran out of disk space on the server.

4187 Get Off My Back John Lewis (411) Mon 05 Sep 2005 07:28 SPOILER

Added speedrun: 86 moves (old: 89).

Oops, posting when using Adam's player file obviously makes the message seem to come from him. ;) Tom 7 assumes responsibility for this bug!

4185 Get Off My Back Adam (342) Mon 05 Sep 2005 02:11

OK, well whatever this bug is, I definitely need to fix it.

4184 Get Off My Back John Lewis (411) Sun 04 Sep 2005 22:19

It's doing the same thing for me...:-(

4183 Get Off My Back Tom 7 (1) Sun 04 Sep 2005 22:11

That's weird. This is with the official escape? If so, please send me your player file or the relevant solution from it. Otherwise, it sounds like you have a bug. ;)

4182 Get Off My Back Adam (342) Sun 04 Sep 2005 13:07 SPOILER

Hey! I have a solution in 86 moves, but the server won't accept it!

1489 Get Off My Back Max (61) Mon 04 Apr 2005 00:01

This is one of those odd levels that stumped me so hard that I had to not play it for a week or so. Then I solved it on my first try after taking a break...

788 Get Off My Back Tom 7 (1) Tue 29 Mar 2005 17:29 SPOILER

Solution "Original":

711 Get Off My Back Max (61) Wed 23 Mar 2005 22:43

Man, I just can't get this one. This is very disturbing since there are relatively few possibilities...

644 Get Off My Back Max (61) Mon 21 Mar 2005 20:04

Man, why are robots so hard?! All these new robot levels are really bothering me. Is there an "Initialize Robot Self-Destruct Sequence" hotkey that I'm missing or something?

550 Get Off My Back Tom 7 (1) Fri 11 Mar 2005 19:10 SPOILER

There are a number of red herrings, including the teleport. But my solution didn't trap him in the top right. (Although I'm betting it's only slightly different.) I'll have to check that out...

548 Get Off My Back jcreed (223) Fri 11 Mar 2005 18:59 SPOILER

Is that teleport a red herring? I never used it. Very nice level anyway. It was enormously satisfying to trap that fucker in the top right. Take that, clingbot!
