Today I finally cleared 2S 2E, thinking I was done with level 8. Then I walked out of the room and the "level exit" failed to come up. It turns out that there's an other room at 2S 3E. Which you can only get to through 3S 3E. And only if you haven't killed the tar mother in that room. Which I did. A long time ago. Oops.
Here's the list of rooms I'll have to redo if I restore to before I killed that tar mother: 2S 2E, 3S 1W, 3S 1E, 3S 3E, 4S, 4S 2E, 4S 3E, 6S 3E and 7S 3E. Quite unsurprisingly, the thought of having to do all these frustrating rooms again does not inspire sublime joy within me. Is there any way to get around this? Please tell me there is.
Unfortunately, there isn't.
The problem is that this was an accident by the designers of the room, making some of the rooms unreachable after you completed them. This room was the only one that was not fixed, so although there is a warning scroll there, you can make 2S 3E unreachable if you were not careful about going into it after you completed 3S 3E.
The only way to do it by yourself is to just play all the rooms over again. The other solution is to ask someone to play all the levels and rooms up to Level 8 for you under a different player so you don't have to, then export the file and give it to you, or more unlikely, but still possible, is that someone may share their player file with you, but this may mean that you may be able to view that player's holds in the future, so people may not want to do this.
If you don't feel like doing the rooms again, ask if someone could make a new player file with progress up to the start of level 9 for you or share their own player file with you. If I have time later, I may do it for you, but it's not a definite, I'm afraid.
Sorry for your misfortune, but continue DRODing anyway!
