loosing the rolling coconutz means nothing because there is a way to kill all the gruntz enemy, one by one with the arrowz... so it took me some extra time...so what... the last word was PERFECT... that what countz... right?

I assume it is the extra bootz... it is, sometimez, much more easy to solve a CL if you read all the messagez in the thread... that is the purpose of the forum ...

Got my perfect score with 1 less death. I'm guessing it's because I didn't sacrifice my last non-warpstone grunt to the two clubz guarding the last orange switch, but I actually found it to be pretty easy to kill them by moving the warpstone grunt away and then hiding behind the spikez of the rolling ball part to give them a death of a thousand cuts. Overall this was really hard (as can be expected from a puzzle that is rated "Very Hard") and took me a while to figure out (probably about 4 hours in total, so far more than my completion time implies), but that makes it the more satisfying to get a perfect score, and I quite liked the theme going on with the green gruntz castle as well.

That is a truly impressive accomplishment, to shave about 17 minutes off the published solving time!
You must have been very efficient at defeating the enemy Gruntz that you had to fight, and managed to avoid fighting many of them. The worst battle I had (years ago!) in this one was my Shovel Grunt in the area with Rolling Rockz ... and aggressive Defenders. If a video existed of your effort in that area, I (for one) would like to see it. I think the only aggressive enemy grunt in that area is just some sponge gun grunt who is unable to walk on any other tile. I guess there's also a yellow sponge grunt on the left side, but he always went up for me, so I just defeated him with Springz and Gauntletz. The rest of the enemies don't do anything if you don't get close, but I'll admit the timing was quite tight for digging all the holez and breaking all the brickz in time. Being efficient was actually not too hard - I essentially replayed the entire level from 0 because I completely forgot to get my Timebombz grunt to the right area to blow up all the volcanoes and rockz to get to the last orange switch, and of course when you already know what to do in every area it takes a lot of time off the clock. If I completed my first run, I'd probably have ended up with a similar or even higher time, since my solving time was still fairly high (the green gruntz castle made me think a lot!), and I'm sure that if I (and/or swietymiki) tried really hard, another 17 minutes - but probably even more - could be shaved off of the completion time. ...If you would still like to see it though, I'd be happy to oblige.
