Here's a second puzzle and solution: If it weren't for the panel then absolutely I'd say do it Bard's way.

i feel like either way givess them the opportunity to just screenshot and do it in ms paint the smaller version in dave's makes it harder. do we want to shrink the image?

"Here are two pipe puzzles. Each square must be rotated so that all of the pipes are filled by the water source in the center square. You may not have any loops. Each side of the puzzle "wraps around" so the top is connected to the bottom and the left is connected to the right.
Good luck, chumps."
I think that covers it?

should we include a coupon for a free frosty?? maybe it'll give em a brain freeze.
for real tho, yes this works. should we mention that drawing over the tiles on ms paint would be useful? we dont want the judges to be completely confused on how to even attempt this

:s that's not part of the puzzle though... that's just a recommended solution. You could also print out the pieces and try them like that? anyway that works for them but that's a personal choice <3 you have an hour to figure it out

Yeah we don't care how they complete it, just as long as it's completed.
@mods, please confirm that you will not be giving them hints as to the most efficient way to solve the puzzles.

We're not going to tell them how to solve the puzzle, but as part of the challenge we will explain to them how to do the puzzle, either through a provided link or a quick explanation.

Does our explanation above qualify without needing to be edited?
