RESULTS TIME!! For me, that's the most awesome time there is 
I haven't uploaded the solutions for you to enjoy just yet, but wanted to post the results without delay. Despite the difficulty of the levels, we had ten participants!
For the first level, we had some interesting routes. I had added the ice to the level so that boosting would help it be quicker there, as block slapping was sure to otherwise encourage a lot of Lynx solutions. (Though cool, this was unwanted because it just increases the amount of ties, as they would all be likely converted to the same MS time. If you aren't familiar with the logic of the rules in this case, don't worry and just read ahead.) Still, the Lynx method allowed for such nice short-cuts that it remained quicker than MS!
The quickest MS score was provided by James at 274 seconds! Nice work! Ihavenoname and myself both had 272 MS, but Lynx scores of 275 LX and 276 LX, which would count at tied with James. Other scores included 273 LX by random 8, 272 LX by rubenspaans, and then sub 270 in MS by others (highest being 266 by both Mike L and Bacorn). We'll get to the exact ranking after the second level. Some players were only able to solve this first level, as the second one was even tougher!
For the second one...
(Oh come on! How is this taking me so long to type up?? Need to go but will come back as soon as I can, but it might be another 12h! Sorry! )
I guess I'll fill in the details a bit later, and here are just the raw results if you can make sense of them:

______________ 276 LX + 320 LX
