Doesn't Even Go Here Posts: 1,670 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Nov 28, 2016	Since the first link Blair used did contain the image but was just formatted improperly, I'm going to take that as your final time, as it was valid proof you found the image. This makes your time 4 minutes 57 seconds!

So when all y'all guys posted the solution, I could break it out into steps. Good team effort and I hope we're the fastest. Our time could have been 30 seconds faster but I couldn't figure out how to post that image :-( So embarrassed.

I dont know what's usual, but damn I don't honestly see how we could be faster. I found the visuals incredibly helpful too, Buffy, Thank you!

Posts: 681 Group: Prom Committee Member #27 Joined: Nov 29, 2016	Wow girl I didn't realize the robot was doubling back because I didn't bother looking at the full solution before doing the segmentation from the back. Nice job with that!

I think 4-5 people came up with the route, so I used that. Alia and Regina mentioned that the path was long so there could be backtracking. Penny said the last four letters were "KLQS" so I thought starting from the last letters would be faster since I couldn't figure out what was the first letter (and it's a good thing because there was backtracking at the very start). Then after about letter 6 or 7, you start to run out of options since you have to use each letter once and it got faster at the end. :-)

Quirky! Posts: 295 Group: Expelled Member #9 Joined: Nov 29, 2016	I think the level of pre-challenge discussion was stellar, great job everyone. And Penny, Blair and Buffy destroying the challenge once we actually started? I'm floored. Again, so many thanks to Buffy for the images she posted. This was a great team effort. Love you all.

Posts: 452 Group: Prom Committee Member #22 Joined: Nov 29, 2016	I think there was a great contribution from our whole team here. I wish I could have done more to help, but this was quite fun. I honestly think this was as near to flawless as can be.
