Dear Community :D ,

Can I possibly have some feedback on this level; whether in the future I need to make more of the same or not :?: :?:

The level is very good indeed. Don't try to make all contest levels the same, originality is relevant.

When I said the same, I dont mean clones :D . I mean of similar difficulty, calibre, and in-level scenery...

As far as N league goes this level seems a little too hard. Maybe it's just me but I actually had an easier time solving the current A and B leagues than this one. And this is supposed to the easiest of the three

That's odd, Ike, cuz it took 5 minutes for me to solve this level. But I can tweak A and B for hours with little or no success.

Thats why i love this game. I've yet to come up with a solution for this competition but had no trouble coming up with one quickly for the other two leagues. Although tweaking them to perfection of course takes a lot longer...

If you look at the timestamps for B league I think theres a 15 minute gap between when the level was posted and when I started bluffing

It depends on the way you see things, I noticed a useful way of completing this level where as on others I am always stumped as to how scores get so high, then see the solution is often with a simple trick.

So I take it the popular consesus is that this level is a touch too hard... Yet TomHD seems to have found numerous ways to complete it!!!
