LEVEL 2 has started! Click here to check it out.

We are finished Level 1! Please see the PDF "Debrief" file attached to this message, and down below. Thank you everyone for the great participation this time!

I just need to do the drawing for Level 2 and it will be up very shortly.

[[ Current level is open to anyone whose forum level is 1-3 ]]

Comments and questions are welcome. When we close the level I will post whatever we have found the "best" solution is, incorporating everybody's different appraoaches.
