wow! You must have a much faster computer, or faster clicker finger than I do. It took me about an hour to get through one code number. The 3 mod codes all took 3-4 hours, depending on how early the answer appeared.

I'll try to help with one by giving you one of the modifiers -- but I'm in grad school and have a lot of schoolwork over the next couple of days, so it might take me a couple of days to get to it. PM me if you'd still like the help.

After all, I had to struggle with it more.

I'm wondering about it too. My husband had to do all 20 of his. I only ended up doing 17 - but only because I was kicked out that first night.
I'm kinda hoping there's a time factor bonus for each step (on this step, at least for those of us who finished before the calculator came out, so that they wouldn't differentiate), 'cause until this plot, I've never been one of the first to finish a step - especially one as insane as that one. I mean, the panic factor I had that night when I couldn't get back in to finish my last 3 should be worth something. (okay, so I'm probably pushing it, but still. I kinda miss the way they did time bonuses back in the LDP for completing a step sooner than later). If there's not, oh well.

Some people did get unlucky, having to do all of the codes, but that's just luck of the draw... admittedly, though, I wouldn't have gone though all of the codes if I knew I had a choice. >.<
