Ok, in next competition I'd like to see maps with two different funnels (blue and orange) in different rooms. Each funnel must be brought to the other room at least once to accomplish some task. Rooms must be separated in some way, at least with fizzler, so that player can't walk from one to another without any action done. Any elements are allowed.

First of all my congratulations to Jose.

He is on holliday now and has no posibilities to post here. So to not make people nervous because of lack of reply for too long, he has sent me an e-mail and asked to post here for him that he will announce the next challenge on Saturday Aug. 30th.

May be too hard to be fun.

Though going the first way again is more obvious and likely to be taken player still can go the new way and skip the "joke". Later in playtrough player may encounter another scene that can be considered as a "joke". But that is the way I block one of unintended solutions player likely may take and that scene can be missed too if he won't go wrong way. Thus both "jokes" can be skiped which is not too good I suppose.

- The practical joke cannot be part of the puzzle: eg. after it is triggered, the new situation is what is required to continue with the puzzle.

Suppose while solving a puzzle player have two ways to procied one of which he already took earlier and a new one, both lead to the same goal. Is blocking the first one with that "joke" to force player to use/find the second one alowed?

It was on my mind for some time, so I have little advantage.

Take for example my map from previous competition "Antonio Bridgelly". It is straight and almost symmetrical. Is it square or rectangle?
