I’m still amazed that this puzzle even exists :D. Also, I see that now the
twists are animated. That’s really cool as it makes it more possible to
show other people. People (myself included) have trouble seeing the twists
as being actual twists without the animation. Also, having animation makes
it easier to remember the conjugating moves (setup moves). Although that
particular thing isn’t as important now that all your puzzles have not only
macros, but support for setup moves too.

Anyway, congrats on this accomplishment, and thanks again for your
invaluable contributions to the community! I wonder if you are going to be
the first solver of this puzzle too, or if you will wait and let someone
else out there attempt it first :D
