    @Jonathan Handojo: Thanks! Now can you make Silver? Just kidding. You make some crafty puzzles! I'm myself just better at solving not designing! Although, my M i d r i f t x, account ... I changed my password prior to COViD; and, funny, I really don't care if I ever recover it. FUN is in experiencing it. Your comments about Chess / Complexity is appropriate! Building is an ART. I can't prevent the sneaky SHORT CUTs. But, SHOWSTOPPERs & Quirks are out of my ballpark!
    
    Thanks for saying WD so!

    @MarsFrog: Thanks for that. I've already exhausted all my ideas into puzzle building. Most puzzles nowadays are just mainly repetitions of what's been built in the past. So I just build from time to time whenever an idea just pops into my head.
    
    I also like to impose restrictions and limitations within a puzzle (such as One Box) to display that puzzles can still be interesting using limited objects in building.

    @MarsFrog: As far as shortcuts go, it just comes down to the attention to detail. It's not like I've never missed any (as you can probably tell from having to make One Box 9c four times. or a missed shortcut in Adventure 20. I would normally spend hours to check for details and maybe days to just build one puzzle.
