And on level 18 I didn’t use one of the mirrors…  
What’s up with that?

Can I have that left-over mirror?

I’ve had left over pieces on a few levels.

Omni, if you tell me where to put the refractors on Level 22, I can try to get Level 23, and may be then able to help you! (Two people pounding their heads against the wall will likely break through sooner than one.)

Well apparently satisfying hunger has no influence on my ability to do these whatsoever.

Just one little request:

Do you need to use the one way to solve number 18?

shelbo,

_HINT WARNING_

On 22, the first refractor goes right above the laser. The second one goes at the entrance to the little corridor in the middle. (1,2) and (2,5) if you prefer.

Gah.

They stole my mirrors…

After levels 18 and 19, I am very very tired.

I’ll just be up here in the clock tower if anyone needs me.

Thanks Omni.  
I’m working with that set up, and I hope I can get it before I’m fired from my job.

Omni, thanks for the hint - it led me to a solution, but I had to move the refractors from where you had them – updated hint below . . .

I used them at 1,4 and 2,5.

Man, 23 is overwhelming right now. I’m going out for a drink. I’ll try this tomorrow.

You know, I had no idea what this thread was about when I saw it (the title was somewhat…vague). I was wondering if anyone else was playing this thing!

I’m currently on level 18, though I haven’t worked too much at it.

And since when is posting the passwords to levels considered a “spoiler”? I would think the **solution** is the spoiler!
