36 short, in 25 tries & no idea left - aarrgh. *-* Edit: 70 tries & 12 short. Again, lacking ideas. :S Edit2: I can't believe I solved it. :) Wouldn't have thought THAT was the shortest way. 83 tries. World/ Universe complete. P.S. Not sure if optimal /1342 steps/ but have no more ideas.
This is not stupid, but it made ME feel stupid. :D Well, anyhow, in 11 tries (and not completely sure, each time, what I was doing), I managed to find a tiny TWO step cut, so here is the new record, now. :)
