  Hi mithmith,

  I don't know - may be you're right. It's hard for me to judge it objectively. Sphinx, what do you think? Hive, please let us have you position too!

    Most level 5 challenges are dynamic. Some of the level 4 challenges are hard in the sense of being obscure (so if one knows what it is, then it's easy), not because the coding required is complex.

  Hello there, and congratulations to you mithmith ;)

   

  I feel that it should remain at level 4. For me level 5 would only (barely) be justified if it was dynamic as well.
  

  The definition of "too much to do" is highly subjective of course, but it is all very straightforward (and you don't even have to code anthing if you like =) ).

   

  Regards,

  Hive

  hmm maybe ..i certainly needed to do quite a bit..

  dynamic hardly increases the complexity ...only lessens the chances of people copying the solutions..

  anyways me okay with 4 or 5 or even 3
