Awesome map that took me a long time and was a lot of fun. Easy 5/5.I am not sure if this has been posted before or not, but after having watched the intended solution, I found that I switched off the final fizzler in a different way: [spoiler]Walk backwards onto the jumppad holding the cube. When landing press w and lose exactly enough momentum to come to rest within the fizzler with the cube still unharmed. Throw the cube onto the jumppad and walk backwards to turn off the fizzler just in time before the cube passes it.[/spoiler]

Quote from KennKong on February 11, 2012, 3:08 amThis map must be Jonatan and Chander's evil love child. It's got Jonatan's devious puzzle design, combined with Chander's dirty tricks.
Since I don't play with a mouse, I knew from the very first jump that there were parts of this map I just couldn't do. I tried every maneuver 20 times, then noclipped. I noclipped a lot. Now you, Jonatan, and grayarea can split the cost of my new F7 key.
It's a shame, really, that such a wonderful puzzle is buried in insane gymnastics. This map won't be playable by very many people, I'm afraid. Of course, they can noclip as much as I did, but I think many will just rage quit. I almost did myself, when having gotten two cubes in the final room, the third cube dropped at the edge of the portal, and I was stuck.
I've played all of Jonatan's maps (except Enigma) many times, most of Chander's several times, and even grayarea's at least a handful, but I won't be playing this again. Let the fast-twitch kiddies have their fun; I'm going home. 4/5 from me.

Quote from KennKong on February 11, 2012, 8:22 pmI owe marKlu cake. I said I wouldn't play this map again, but I could't resist. It encouraged me to push beyond my skill limitations. I got through the whole thing without a single cheat!The trails of my tears
[spoiler]
- The strafe-jump to the bridge took me at least 50 tries before I hit it once, but now I can hit it once in about 20.
- Shooting the bridge under me to get to 2 dots wasn't nearly as bad, but ...
- coming out of 2 dots was really iffy. The biggest problem I had wasn't hitting the portals, but the laser hitting me as the cube dropped.
- You taught me a new trick, jumping off and grabbing a cube.
- I borked 3 dots a lot, because the portal was a tiny target.
- Getting the first cube to the exit was mostly a timing issue, not really difficult.
- Getting the dirty cube back was a problem again because it landed just beyond the edge of the portal. (a physics_clip there might help)
