GG on solving Last Laugh! Your solution actually is a tad different than intended but its fine. If you look at the replay you'll see actually you made it a tad more complicated than it needed to be. Spoiler (click to show/hide) I'd be surprised that other things are possible but that already happened when people got to the other exit!
I'm honestly still shocked people are finding this level this difficult. Maybe it's just the way the level was created; the solution felt ad hoc at the time, with lots of red herrings. I didn't forsee it being viewed as this creative. I'm glad people liked it and convinced me to leave it be.

also gg on Elixir, Spoiler (click to show/hide)yes that one build on the right side is the hard part. Initially I had a solution that involved falling through the tiny crack but it was backrouted severely. Geoo came up with that new part and took me a while to solve it.
Like I said during the stream your alternate solution to Five for Fighting is fine.

I'm still rewatching the parts I missed. If there's anything else I'll comment later.

Simon:
Thanks!

I agree that the proof replay for Last Laugh is even easier, I should have found that, but my route was indeed close enough and not too awkward a complication. Cute level, it looks impossible at first.

For completeness, I've attached my Vicious replays.

Bonus surprise: :lix-cool: In my lunch break today, I've hacked together a Lix version that doesn't cut the replay on assignment. Every assignment will insert into the replay. To cut the replay, I'll have to click air. Let's see how it feels. I'll also start a forum topic around Christmas on this idea. This might be a really awkward change, or it can be the searing beam of reason from the future of singleplayer.

Stream is over! Vicious with the replay-insert feature that cuts only the future of the single lix.

Stream is over! Four hours of level solving. I've now solved 39/40 Vicious levels. Only The Circular Ruins is left. Replays are attached for posterity.

Toccata is the alternative solution that Ramond also found and that Proxima decides to keep. We've watched Proxima's proof replay with the intended solution on stream.

Alien Invasion is likely still backroutish, even though it's better than all of my ancient backrouting of Alien Invasion in 2012. I don't know the intended solution.

Dream the Impossible Dream is a backroute fueled by precise timing. I don't know the intended solution.
