@movq This is actually a good positive change I think!

Personally, I’ll probably stretch it out over 24 days. Giving myself more time to solve each puzzle and I really want this event to last the entire month. 😅

I might even do AoC this year with the elevated stress/pressure! -- The last few times I've tried, I've always felt far too much pressure and felt like a failure 😞 (mostly ya know because of my vision impairment, I couldn't keep up!)

@movq I think if I was younger, with more energy, and wasn't blind with leber's disease (look it up) I'd be fine™ But yeah I get the whole "exhausting" apart. I'll join you this year, since there's only 12 puzzles and as you say, we can "take our time" it might actually be fun! (as opposed to exhausting and pressured).

Unless your masochist spirit requires/demands it, I don't see a reason to do something that will pressure, stress, and leave you exhausted. 😅

All that's true! -- However I am very competitive (usually with myself!)
