Insane - can you remove the spoiler from your post? If someone happens to take everyone else's advice and plays it in 2.0 without looking at the room images in the forums, your post will still spoil it for them.

I removed the spoiler. I also just checked and the entire level is supposed to be blocked from the image database, so...it might be that you have to have conquered a room in order to see it, in which case, there are no spoilers via images.

Game on,

But that still ruins it for non Caravelnet players.

Huh? Those shouldn't be seeing images from this hold at all, unless I'm totally wrong... :huh

np: Sage Francis - Different (Personal Journals)

Even still, Caravelnet itself drops some pretty big hints.

This hold is absolutely brilliant. A true classic, I'd recommend it to anyone.

Worked out the trick from the eye room (2S) and the pink minimap, it's a very well executed concept (just a shame that TCB completely wrecks it)

With the exception of the orb room (where I used H&S, not my type of puzzle), the rest of the puzzles were pretty cool, my favourite being 9N.

After you know the trick, the puzzles aren't too difficult, so the hold is worth about 5 brains.

Overall, nice work :thumbsup
