  I actually did the same thing as Doom on the top portion - I assumed the rest of it was just a decoy.

  Nice work Doom. I figured this level would be a little loose, but I didn't count on your completely different solution!

Tom: yes, the transponders are tricky to control since they can be used from different sides and moved around. I had considered re-using part of the top of the board, as I had done with 'Divided Land', but it seemed like the more complicated it got the more likely the cooks.

  Boy, those transponders are hard to tame, huh? Doom's cook is delightful.

BTW, I thought for a bit that the looseness of the top was because I was going to have to use the top right as part of my circuit for the bottom half. That would have been a good twist.

  Nice level. The second part is very tight.

My completely different solution for this level
