Well, I'm currently working on improving the tutorial further, but I'll leave the old map in, so that the now mode will be easy enough to disable if I'm not finished by then. The description sounds incredibly familiar, so it's probably the same one as last year. > Now, we can change the requirements afterwards (that's not uncommon in > the industry, right :P) but I think we agree that the tutorial is a > good target for testing.

Seeing how the Hints mode hasn't actually been touched since the tutorial redesign (and that was only renaming it to Hints mode), looking at that is not going to provide us with any information that wasn't already uncovered the first time around. Once I'm done with the tutorial, I'll have a second look at that, but I really can't estimate when I'll get around to it.
