You're right, I don't usually post on the weekends but since people have been sending in their updates, I'm making an effort to check in to keep the game moving.

And there is ONE clear way through sandtrap alley. And a few clear squares not on that path. hahahahah, but not many.

To be nice I have marked squares in sandbag alley that are confirmed clear with an 'x'

Spaced clears and head for the far turn.
Sparrow only hits one sand bag and it is clear under him as he gets close to clearing.
Jonny only hits two, and pulls ahead of sparrow, it is clear under him.
But it gives sparrow an opt to slip.
Tuber his only one sandbag and it's under him. But GR rams him from behind but loses the toss. IT is clear under him.
Vovan hits two bags so his last turn L doesnt take.
Kassi hits two, and its clear under him. He's see the path out and gets to slip.

Let the fun begin.


The clear path through is now obvious..


Now accepting orders for turn 12.

BTW Rah, what are you smoking...there is no clear path through?

For instance if you look at rows 10 and 11, there is no way to get from the two x's in 10 to the x in 11. There are similar distubances in the force on other rows, but still mainly at the conjecture point since they are not fully uncovered.
