I have to say, I loved this. Cool idea, straightforward enough to start with, but enough backtracking that it killed quite a bit of time. 3642.446 seconds to be exact, though I was afk for a fair bit of that. Gets quite frustrating when you know exactly where you need to be but can't work out how to get there!
