Sorry for being a day late with the results but here they are:
Technically there's two winners since I changed the level mid-competition..
decsystem10 wins with 4424 for the first level (The only solution to that level, I managed to mess up my POC...)
bythelee wins with 2960 for the second level, with mark_man just 2 behind.
Thank you guys for trying out my level and sending in solutions!
I'd be happy to make another competition if people don't have time to make the next.
Also, my POC is pretty decent this time..
