I have had this level started for awhile, but it wasn't until I wore the Dunce Hat (that resulted in hat hair

), that it all came together.

I did it. I thought it was easier than I first thought. Fun Level.

I did it too! Did the box dance with the Kabooms. I originally started out thinking I had to use the "wrong" teleporter tho, but finally figured it out. That was fun, ol'gramma, as yours always are though!!!

At first, I thought; this looks easy, but now, that I've collected all the coins (and set the ufo free

) I'm trying to figure out how to get to the exit

I'll go back and try again - great level, ol'gramma

Bina
Here is a hint:

Spoiler

All of those boxes that are left after you killed the Kabooms need to go into the yellow teleporter, and sent back thru the yellow teleporter from the bottom, in order to make a bridge to the exit.

ooooh - I have to kill the kabooms? I was just leaving them alone, thinkng they were there to anoy me

Thanks Carolyn, I was aproching this all wrong (I thought I had to block the yellow teleporters with the boulders or something

)

I'll try again tomorrow (its 01:47 in DK)

Good night!

What do you mean, KILL THE KABOOMS????? I didn't kill them, just danced with them around the boxes. So I didn't use the boxes in with the Kabooms - I had enough without those!!! Must've done something different than was intended maybe????

Bina and Majic,

I had intended that you would kill the Kabooms, and then there are enough boxes left to fill the exit holes and make a path to the red teleporter. You did it the hard way.!!

The dance part of the title was referring to all the moving in and out of the darn yellow transporter.

Your dance was much more appropriate to the title~And more graceful I imagine...

Isn't it funny how a player can see and tackle a level differently than intended?

Yeah! Remember my Arizona level when Dianna was going the wrong way. And Dianna's way MADE SENSE!

But because I made the level, I ASSUMED everyone would just naturally know which way to go. (If I remember right, YOU, ol'gramma, were the one who pointed her in the right direction!)

Majic,
Yes I sure do remember that level, as I was playing it just like she did, over and over. Finally, I decided I wasn't doing it right. Since Stinky was standing facing the door way I just assumed he needed to go there first.
It just amazes me how we see things differently.

Should have put a sign or two down in the beginning!!!

I AM SORRY TO EVERYONE WHO WENT THE WRONG WAY!! PLEASE ACCEPT MY DEEPEST APOLOGIES!!! I promise I'll try and look at my levels in different perspectives before I submit them from now on!!!

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Thu Apr 29, 2004 2:14 am

DAMN - I already submitted another level before I saw this - don't think you can go the wrong way in this one tho!!

ol'gramma · Post by **ol'gramma** » Thu Apr 29, 2004 3:13 am

Majic,
No apologies necessary, It's a GAME, remember? That's the fun of it..you have to figure it out.
If we had to be sure ahead of time how each person will play the game, which is not possible, it wouldn't be fun anymore.
You are not going to get sent to your room without Wonderland if people can't figure it out. ...they can always ASK if they can't.

Now you put your happy face back on again!

I am SO glad I'm not being sent to my room! I just HATE it when that happens [ha ha ha - IN MY Dad's dreams 50,000 years later, - I KNOW he'd still love to send me to my room for all the DUMB things I've done that (of course) he warned me NOT to do (Hell, I'm a stubborn fool) ain't gonna happen] - anyway, thanks ol'gramma for reminding me what it was like being sent to my room - guess I'LL NEVER wish I was young again!!!

HAVE to add - my DAD is the greatest, 83 years old, just finished building his own deck - he was NOT a tyrant, tho I thought so when I was 16 (now he's the best Dad; at 16, I thought he was the worst thing that could ever happen to a person - we had to do what he said & he knew NOTHING - only us 16-year olds knew what life was REALLY about! - Boy did I get a SAD awakening when I had my OWN children!!!!) Think maybe I should get him hooked on Wonderland (we'd NEVER be able to solve his levels - he's tooooo logical!!!) - so MAYBE I won't clue him in - although old pete could sure use the company!!!

Hi ol'gramma,
I loved this level too. I did it the way the others did and left the Kabooms dancing around their boxes.

What I really wanted to get rid of was the ufo!

I had no problem though, finishing the way I did because I filled in all the necessary holes before freeing the ufo. That way all I had to do after hitting the switch was step onto the teleporter from the left and walk to the exit. I just didn't want to spoil the Kaboom dance.

Dianna · Post by **Dianna** » Thu Apr 29, 2004 1:51 pm

Ah, heck, I'm trying to do it "the hard way" too. I just left the Kabooms alone, but at the end I'm having a bit of trouble with that UFO. Maybe I'll try liberating those boxes from the Kabooms and see if my luck is better that way!

ol'gramma · Post by **ol'gramma** » Thu Apr 29, 2004 2:06 pm

Sharon,

You finished exactly as intended.

I put the little note in just before the red teleporter, because there is nothing more maddening than moving a whole bunch of boxes, avoiding the bad guys, only to get to what you think is the exit, and then having to start over.

SharonM · Post by **SharonM** » Thu Apr 29, 2004 7:44 pm

Thanks ol'gramma! I know what you mean. But what I meant to say was that I finished it without disturbing the Kabooms!

That was an accomplishment for me as I usually try to desrtoy them!

I just thought they looked so peaceful doing their little box step though, that I left them alone!

Hope you don't mind.

Dianna · Post by **Dianna** » Fri Apr 30, 2004 1:47 pm

Well, I finally finished this level, but wasn't able to get those Kabooms. They just kept getting Stinky instead. Ultimately I found that if I just finished my escape bridge BEFORE taking that last coin (with the other boxes, glad you put in enough) I could get away from the UFO easier than fighting the Kabooms.

Afraid my score wasn't very good, tho, since I also didn't manage to get those doggies -- my boulders collided and broke! This was a GOOD LEVEL!

jperleevt · Post by **jperleevt** » Fri Apr 30, 2004 3:27 pm

I didn't kill the Kabooms either. I did however use the rock to get rid of that nasty UFO so I didn't need to worry about him!

Brilliant level ol'gramma, had to do it a couple of times though.

I DID kill the Kabooms

poor wee cuddly things!

Make some more please.

M.A.D.

You all had very different, clever ways of playing this level.
I am sooooooooo impressed with your ingenuity!

I worked and wored on this level... I could not manage to get the coin where the Z-bots were...

.... I finally figured out where to shove the box in to make the Z-bots go the rite way... It was a very interesting level, carolyn, I like these where u have to figure out what to do... and then it works out....

... good level... I enjoyed it!! Thanks!!
