the_wizard_666 | 1,343 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) 39:30 Score edited, and photos replaced. Still room for improvement, as I had some connectivity issues. Could probably get it sub-30, but I dunno if I wanna do it again As with the original, my phone's camera sucks so I included a screen grab for legibility.

I ask because although I currently have the best time, I also had a 10 minute interruption, so my time can be vastly improved. Anyway, here... Also did a screen grab in case that's too blurry... You can pause the puzzle timer if you need to step away.

Jeevan | 9,255 Events Helper · Posted October 11, 2021 Author Share Posted October 11, 2021 Question to you all......Have you been using the ghost mode button? Just curious as it was posed to me. I don't use it when building puzzles online, but just wondered what you all had been doing. I didn't like it myself. Let me know. I can adjust the rules for or against it if you all want. I won't penalize you all as this is really just for fun and for a change of pace to the normal high score or progression type deal. Let me know please!

Bearcat-Doug | 5,126 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I have a long way to go to keep my streak of 3rd place finishes in these holiday contests going. I may actually be worse at real puzzles than I am puzzle video games.
