I've tried hard to make the tutorials such that you are forced to figure out the behavior without too many choices to distract you. Maybe I haven't always done the best job of that, but I'd prefer to improve the tutorials than to give the solution.

Hint: for #17, push the button several times after going through the teleporter to get you started.

Kirima, it isn't obvious if there is a specific aspect of the behavior you don't understand that is necessary for solving the level!

I mean levels that don't make me want to die, Max.

Anon: We're going to set up a results page soon!

Thanks for the post... I was searching for the results (as per languages used, etc.) with no luck. Thanks for the great link to the presentation. It was excellent!

Thanks!

Listen everyone...if you find a mushroom anywhere in your home it is a warning sign that a more serious issue exists!!! I found one in my bathroom, and come to find out upon inspection, I have some serious water damage that led to several types of mold, including black mold. Fortunately, my homeowners insurance covers the majority of the $15,000 cost to tear everything apart in my bathroom, remediate the mold & rot, and re-build it...and this is just minor for what could've been possible had I ignored the situation. Several parties reiterated that I caught this problem at its onset. Good luck to all who face this problem :)

I meant in October, sorry! That's when I'll finally have some time for projects like escape again. I did start working on it though. There's no need for surprises: The first project is putting the solution manager inside the bookmark system, which will make it easy to do things like edit a solution that you download to make it faster, or zoom out or scroll while watching a solution, or whatever.

The second project is a new level browser to let us tame the enormous collection of levels.

I too would like to play some more Major League levels...! Anyone?

I'm looking forward for some next airport, would you please upload it very soon, I'm kind of sick of those beginner levels.

You've promised something for the next month, I'm curious! September will be over in about a few hours, so I'm really curious.

Hope you've had a wonderful 27th?!

I poured regular laundry detergent on a mushroom in the basement and it killed it

The new UT engine looks amazing. I never really got into the single player ones, but we still play the original UT (with ridiculously overpowered graphics cards) occasionally in the computer cluster at school, and there is definitely something to be said for multiplayer games where every weapon is way too powerful. It is a strange kind of balance. And even if the UT itself isn't that good, it looks like the engine may be a new favorite for other developers.

(Also I am cheering for Tim Sweeny's enterprise because he has a strong interest in functional programming, which is my research area..)

After beating quake 3 on nightmare I felt strangely compete, i could turn my back to PC games and whole heartedly pursue women like a new born man.

but im still here at this undying string.

OSP is so dope, i wish it could be played with bots - bots just never quite grasp the rocket jumping goodness. and its hard to find good servers with real fanatics left.

I love quake 3 but its descendant quake 4 killed my devotion to the franchise.

this blog never dies,

is anyone looking forward to Unreal Tournament 2007?

its the type of game that makes you save up and buy a new computer, but dual core rigs with SLI are getting cheaper and more affordable to the average citizen.

I do, Max... actually I am quite behind on those. I have some unfinished ones from last summer, even.

Hey, don't you owe us another Airport Series level now?

The question is, which came first, the alias or the clothing?

Oh also... I thought I'd never know the reason for your last.fm name. Now I do. :D
