Congrats to @xor25th @Mol @Luffymain @PCMan and the entire team for making a MONSTER I NEVER WANT TO SEE AGAIN. They deservingly took $500, and at least 10 years of my life 😱

Shoutout to @typon @II-IX - Tinnitus for a great story done through well-constructed and/or puzzles, ladders, and ankle-breaking jumps! Darryl’s life earned him a fandom, as well as $500 🧩
