If you are left with 1 snake is it possible to manipulate it's head onto the trapdoor?

Here's the way I used to get the snake to cooperate as I cobbled it together in the editor - don't look at it unless you can't figure it out yourself.

How to get the snake into that awkward position is left as an exercise to the reader...

np: Hanno Leichtmann - Fenster (Nuit Du Plomb)

Got it at last. Obvious when I looked at it, but still not easy. Onto the next room.
Thanks

Heh! For your information you don't need the longest snake. Briareos way of twisting the serpent is needlessly complicated.

Geee, thanks... I guess...

(Yeah, I forgot that the snake behaves as if it were unbrained when it has no path to you - but my solution would actually work if the snake stayed brained... )

np: Alias & Tarsier - Ligaya (Brookland & Oaklyn)

May I assume that a 14 tiles snake works?
