Solutions are saved automatically, if they work.
There do seem to be instances where saved solutions that work, dont work if you load them again. This seems to be the case when a solution is really sketchy.

If the game isn't closed correctly, it won't save the solutions. I lost all my solutions to the countdown level set this way...

I had one like that during this contest, but it wasn't one of my latest ones, and it wasn't hard to tweak it back to working (even after the next save)

I can't wait to see your solutions. I am not able to make a better solutions then 1702, from the center entry point, so far. I have some solutions from all off the three entry.Some expensive cool slides. I made an overbudget cool slide from right under the highest left anchor, but manage to tweak it in to budget. 4$ left. It can be cheeper but i am happy with it.

I give up, but I'll still send in my non-competitive $1732 solution. I'm looking forward to seeing the other solutions later today!

Yes but you're forgetting daylight saving. So right now, it's GMT+2, or CEST (Central European Summer Time)
Man, you don't even know what timezone you're in? :P

Greetings from Amsterdam anyway.
