was that solution to Path To Mahiman intended? IMO: it completely trivializes the level; the idea of the level is to go around the maze. Maybe it was tedious before with the builder-only version but with walkers and jumpers I thought it was not annoying at all.

Quirky 35-40

I suppose not; from the Lix IRC:

[19:21:42]    <SimonN> geoo: backroute in Path to Mahiman: https://youtu.be/ok2Q2f8QMDI?t=70
[...]
[21:45:10]    <geoo> hmm, the Path to Mahiman in my version also has that backroute. I wonder if something got changed at some point, or if it was simply never found
[21:45:56]    <geoo> I have the hunch that your commit from Oct 9 did that: "Mahiman rm indirect jump"
[21:47:25]    <geoo> yup, backroute wasn't there before that commit

It was changed for 0.9.2 since it had a precision shortcut (already with same skill set):

Old Backroute:

Fix that seems to introduce new backroute:

But the new backroute looks easily fixable.

Flopsy

I knew it was a backroute when I found it because I thought there was no way it was that easy in MazuLems.

So all Quirky rank is uploaded now.
I'm currently recorded up to Cunning 13, I do skip 3 levels along the way up to there because I couldn't solve them but which 3 I skipped I will leave a mystery for now.

Need to record more Lix because I think there are only 4 videos left now.

Flopsy

There should be a new video every Friday on my channel until further notice :)

I don't want to interfere with Flopsy and this will be probably my last reminder but the videos not considered in the first post until now are:

Cunning 6-10
Cunning 11-13

Yeah, "A Soulful Bounding Leap" is a tricky level, for me the hardest of the rank.

Videos not considered in the first post until now are:

Cunning 18-22
Cunning 23-25

Flopsy solved "Watch Ye Step" blazingly fast. I had so much trouble with that level.

Videos not considered in the first post until now are:

Cunning 26-28
Cunning 29-30

I remember "Little Miner Puzzle (Part 3)" as having been very finicky at one point.

Videos not considered in the first post until now are:

Cunning 31-34
Cunning 35+36
Cunning 37+38

Good job by Flopsy on solving Pillars of Lixdom that fast. As Good As Dead depends on knowing the main trick, which I didn't as I played it first.

Flopsy and Wafflem both solved the level this way, merging the crowd in the area with the hatch, rather than using the slope in the middle area to help. This makes the level much more tedious than it needs to be, even with fast forward. Should we prevent this?

Spoiler
Wait :lix-scared:... merging the crowd in the area with the hatch is not the only way? How would you use the slope in the middle to help with this? I'm very curious now.

Proxima

Spoiler
Bridge above slope = longer fall = non-floaters catch up faster.

The lemforum replay does it like Flopsy and others (including me).

Spoiler
You can seal the small hole to the trap with one stair and then build the two stairs at the slope which gives you a bit more height as Proxima said than if you only use stairs. But therefore the lix have a longer walking distance. My replay for that is quite long as well but maybe you can arrange that more wisely.
