Unless something serious crops up IRL. I'll be attending.

Congratulations Kingshadow3
That was an excellent level!

Congratulations to you too Armani for getting second place.
Your level was also cool.

And thank you all for the congrats. I'll be choosing the rules for the next contest and I've already submitted them to IchoTolot. The topic for the next contest will most likely be either be made tomorrow or next week as he told me he'll will be away this weekend.

(this is Silken BTW, despite the incorrect username!!! )

I should be good to join.

Why did we not play Lix over the summer? Is there something specific about the summer that meant we didn't play or are you just noting that it was just coincidentally that it just happened that no Lix sessions happened over the summer?

It mostly has to do with how hot it can become during the summer. We presumed that not many people would actually want to play during the summer heat, especially in the warmer countries and states.

I'll be joining. It's been a while.

Resolved and I think we finally got it, so I have a good feeling about this

Intended solution.

And just in time too as the final day to update levels is approaching. Anymore backroutes found won't be patched out during the contest. If I were to finish a level pack with these levels in, I will have further backroutes patched out when I release it.

2 of the builders are now pickup skills.

R1: Lost Temple from the 4th Dimension

V1 -> V2
Added Steel near the top right hatch.

---

R2: Mobius Dickins

V1 -> V2
Added more steel near the whale's flipper.

V2 -> V3
Added terrain above the starting area to patch a backroute.

V3 -> V4
Added an extra crystal so lemmings can't get onto the left crystal at the starting area

V4 -> V5
Added a net obstacle in front of the whale

V5 -> V6
More steel put on the whale.

V6 -> V7
2 Builders are now pickup skills.

I've added more steel onto the whale. Unfortunately, this change has made it so that IchoTolot's solution is no longer possible.

And here are my replays to all the Lix entries and NL entries. I think I have backroutes for two NL levels and either 1 or 2 Lix entries, while the rest seem intended or acceptable In particular, I'm not sure how Armani, Icho, and Simon all missed a very easy backroute to geoo's R3 Also, I completely agree with Simon that geoo's R1 is very tough! It took me a very long time before I finally got it solved! As a result, it was the very last level that I got solved

The solutions for my R1 and R3 are intended.

I've updated my Rule 2 level.

Resolves for Kingshadow3's and geoo's R2.

I think Kingshadow3's might be at least close to intended, but I have spare Lixes and skills for geoo's level. Although, I think it's closer than the first solution.

I'll accept this as an alternative solution.

Spoiler

The intended solution uses the trick of cancelling a basher with a walker midstroke to make a one way path onto the tail but using a stacker to turn the crowd around and using a walker to turn the climber I'll accept. A stacker is used to patch the flipper up instead of a platformer but you can use either skill. It's also possible to get from the platform on the right to the tail with a stacker, a walker and a builder. The main trick I wanted to enforce for this level was delaying the crowd with a basher

I've updated my R2 to V4.

@IchoTolot

R1 is the intended solution . R2 is an obvious backroute .

Here are my solutions to all levels.

I sense that there are still a few backroutes.

I will probably make my videos after the backroutes have been patched out.

The solutions to both my R1 and my R2 are backroutes. I've updated the levels in the update topic.

The solution for my R3 is intended.

During our meetup in Leeds, me and WillLem discussed about shimmiers that were also climbers being able to climb up a vertical overhang as seen in this picture with these lemmings with the arrows showing how a lemming who was also a climber could move.



WillLem asked me to start a topic on it when I got home.

I initially asked about this particular shimmier mechanic for Neolemmix back in 2017 before the shimmier was added as this mechanic exist in Lemming 2: The Tribes but was rejected on the possibility that this would be deemed overpowered. Here is the original topic.

I've just bought my train ticket, so I should be there as well.

My ticket says I should arrive at 11:32am. So please wait a little so I can find all of you.
