Thank you so much for breaking up the MT solutions wiki page! It had
gotten /way /out of control.

I bet Ed’s 1M+ twist solution will strain a few things. It will be a
great test case. Good luck Ed!

Finally, congratulations on 100k+ video views. That happened pretty
quickly. Maybe even faster than the 4D video.

Great stuff everyone!
