This took me 187 tries, lmao. Not great, but that solution was super hard to see. Great level. Finally done with the Medium world!
Finally solved this level in my 140th try after being 2 off since the 10th try...once more, "how could I not have seen that earlier?" Fantastic solution.
Very clever, although I like the wrong 2-off path better than the right one :p Another great example of how this game forces you to refine or throw out your assumptions as you go along a level, trying to optimize it. 28 tries
Somewhere along the 60th try I accidentally slipped my finger, doing something I didn't mean to do. And it just so happened to be the right idea, once I thought about it...kinda ashamed of hitting upon the big trick accidentally, but I'll take it. 64 tries, over the years :-)
Normally, I'm not a huge fan of levels like these where it just feels like you try a bunch until you chance upon the one that just happens to be correct --- the PP2 equivalent of pure lock order boredom --- but this one was great; the right path definitely feels a lot more "right". Very clever.

32 tries. Wonderful level, probably the best Medium one. It's really rare for a level to require such intense "layered thinking", let alone featuring it so deeply in such a confined area.

55 tries over a couple of years, always 2 off. 2 tries today to cut the last two out of nowhere - I have no idea how that was even different? Great level, all the same.
uhhhh lol...looks like you guys were trying too hard ;)
Solved, 25 tries. What were you guys on when you put this under Easy haha. I changed this to Medium-3, if anyone vehemently disagrees, do voice! To me this is still a lot tougher than many of the Medium 3s though.
I'll never get optimal on this, so this is basically a FFA. Have fun~
