Whoa. I saw this just as you posted it and scanned it quickly (I remember thinking "B-list" somewhere), but had to run off to work. Just checked in after almost FIVE HOURS and the game's still on! Last week's was solved in (I think) less than twenty minutes.

It was good fun and very difficult by my somewhat lowly standards. Thanks, Ixion
