Some people already seem to be making assumptions that some holds are impossible. I just want to say that if you see this happening to your entry, or suspect that it might happen anyways, or just want to impress people with the fact that you can actually solve the devilishly difficult puzzles you create, post some demos here.

Or, if you suspect that an entry is impossible, say so here, and maybe some demos will show up. I personally want to see some demos of The spitemaster's rooms. Those look tough! :)

#6 is impossible (among other things) because the last few rooms just aren't connected.

Here are mine, but please play the rooms first, or you may miss the point of some. I tried to design some rooms so that the natural approach doesn't work. Rating it on the demos will bypass all that.

Has anyone been past 2E in Beneath Snoll? The script to lock up the first section of the room after 50 moves hits an orb that locks both exits as well, and I can't find any orb that could unlock them, ever. So for now, I'm assuming this is impossible.

Sorry, I didn't record any demos. I did, however, play through the entire hold before submitting it, so I'm positive there isn't anything to worry about.

I also find it quite impossible to kill monsters and get away with it, even in my non-scripted rooms. However, I may have missed an exploit which I am too unskilled to perform.

There was one room, 1N1E or 2N1E (I forget which), which starts with you being chased by a roach around a bunch of corners. I was able to catch the roach on a corner and take him out, and he didn't seem to be needed anywhere later (nor was there any scripting in that room to stop me). This is the room that requires you to

Still and all, I thought your hold was really, really good.

Yeah, I just noticed Robobob pointed that out earlier.

However, trying that room again, I couldn't seem to do what you wanted - I could indeed lead the rattlesnake through the mini-bomb maze without the roach's help, but I couldn't then keep it off the force arrows. Could you give me a demo of that?

In addition, in that same room you can at first shorten the rattlesnake to 2, and still use it to protect yourself from the bottom trap. After that you can kill it, and then kill the bottom roach too, clearing the room.

And in one of the first rooms, with the scripted event of a roach entering a snady area, you can kill the roach after the door opens.

Can someone please post a demo for 1N of Ostegolectr1c's hold (the 3 guards bit)? I'm not having any luck finding the right sequence of moves, and I can't skip it cos the hold isn't anyone-edit.

Have you try to use "Watch Demo" on the main screen for that hold?

Hi Chaco --

I will try to put one together. I don't have the hold installed anymore at this point, but if I can make it happen, I will.

Edit: Whoops! That was michthro's hold! Sorry, Chaco.

It's really, really easy to kill the seeps in 1W. In fact, there's more than one way to do so.

The first way is to
