     @hazlin overfilled house, unsupportive whiner throwing constant tizzies.
     
     they're the kind of people i always end up dealing with: throws a fit and gives up while you're literally in the middle of doing their shit.

     @hazlin basically resulted in a lot of having to move stacks between tables and floors to move something else to move the stacks back to move something else kind of issues

     @hazlin towers of hanoi is a logic game where you have to move three discs between three pegs and no disc can sit atop a smaller one.

     @hazlin aaa devs like to turn the really basic ass ones in to things to slow down gameplay yeah.
     
     a shitposter would say that's as much as AAA developers an comprehend :blobcatgiggle2: though more likely its because action gamers will rage if they have to solve a puzzle harder than matching 3

     I was actually pretty sick the last time I encountered it, and I remember it, because I was too sick to solve it without making a mistake a resetting the puzzle xD
     
     So, I stopped, wrote a script in ruby to brute force the puzzle, and then had it spoon feed me what to click on next xD
