Radenska: I'm not quite sure I understand your question fully, but here is my answer. Even in the tutorial, the statement is made that "Time is critical". If we think of Odin City as a starship on a journey, the goal of the commander should be to 1) save lives of the citizens of Odin City, get out of the hostile land as quickly as possible. To this end, finding the build which presents the least time to exit is desirable. Odin City has no need of taking in energy from the surroundings. That energy is just for the weapons and assisting in the totem activation. Finding the shortest time is actually the most peaceful solution as there is the least creeper killed. While there are many ways to play the game, shortest time makes the most sense from a real warfare point of view.
kennycjr: About once a year I'll delve into the Survival arena. It's my least favorite way to play the game, but has its own rewards. Thanks for the comments.
1/10 - 5:44 Show me how to do these intermediate puzzles. carusoo, if you take "lol MTargaryen", it rearranges to "ol angel martyr". That must mean something.
Dlugopis: As there are 7 maps available, it would be helpful to all of us if you could reference which map you played. Most of us default to (month/day hyphen n time comment) In this way we can learn from each other. Thanks for your input. :-)
