Second try!

(1) is a backroute, (2) is (close enough to) intended!

R1 - Yup, spot on about the first solution being a backroute, while the second solution is exactly intended. For V3, added more steel and OWAs. I also added some more terrain near an exit.

R3 - Wow, very impressive save all As you might expect, I don't require what you used to pull that off in any of my solutions, and I would happily say this is an acceptable challenge solution, but as I don't want too much precision, I decided to make a small change of moving two of the wires down a pixel. I think it even works if I move them down 2 pixels, but then any solution would require too much precision, and I want to avoid that. In any case, it's just a small tweak and then you're good to go for it

played through rule 3

Paradox

I have a good feeling about my solution being intended
 Such a simple looking level with challenging solution. I love it

...

That's actually unintended, but I absolutely love it!  I'll definitely accept that as an alternative solution, at least for now!

@kaywhyn
resolved! Unfortunately I can't seem to save 100% this time

@Armani

Not any of the 3 solutions I had in mind, but you managed to come up with a new solution! It's good enough for me. I could easily block that by increasing the Lemming count, but it's fine. Well done!

Solved Armani's, Icho's, Crane's (both Talisman's) and Colorful Arty's Rule 3 levels

[Crane]

All intended there erikderkovits - well done.

@ericderkovits
Your solution to Ley Lines is a backroute.
On the other hand, you found the intended solution to my rule1 level. well done!

[IchoTolot]

@ericderkovits

Intended solution for my R3! Great job! 

Also it seems like I finally got that one backroute fixed. 

[ericderkovits]

@Colorful Arty

acceptable solution to my rule 3 level

[IchoTolot]

I will probably try and play through the levels when I am back from my hometown christmas break as it seems like the first wave of backroutes has come to an end.
