Wander of Thought is a sort of old remake of Thinking Space by a few people. It was created in late 2020 and early 2021, being released in April for the ILL. It was added at just #97 a few days later in May, which is absurd to think about since #97 is probably a bit closer to where Sailent Clubvoid would place, crazy how much difficulty has inflated. The only recorded WR on this is 40% by Esoteric Hydra, achieved in June 2024. This might be surprising but this level absolutely blows the original Thinking Space out of the water, and is more comparable to TS2 or TS2 Legacy in difficulty, likely sitting right at a midpoint between those two. Or maybe not' this level really has almost no difficulty opinions. The WR being relatively small is definitely a sign that the level isn't good at all to play, and likely incredibly difficulty, because this level retains the classic balancing of the original too.
The level suffers from both Avernus and Sakupen Hell syndrome, where fixed hitboxes and black bushes that are nearly invisible mislead you into thinking the gaps aren't as bad. There's a 2-3f in the first wave because of those bushes lmao. And of course we cannot ignore the obvious chokepoint at 75%, which makes the one in the original look free in comparison. The way the orbs and spike gap at 77% is, makes for an absolutely unforgiving setup that from my 20 minutes of testing, yielded at least a single 1f every time. It's not so easy to explain in words, so if possible you may want to give it a shot. Maybe there's a better strat I don't know of? either way, I doubt this level will be beaten for a while, not until it falls closer to the extended list itself. It's placed at #1073 on the ILL which is above TS2. The level itself is super aura and I think a much cooler level than Void of Thought or even the #2 demon TS2, but that might be a bit of a hot take lmao. Would love to see the WR pushed for sure, as it's definitely possible.

zorin was a unique list demon verified by the underrated player, 9i. Its one of the most special ones for two main reasons, that being the nature of the level itself, being entirely spikeless (and by extension, hazardless), and the other just being the overall aesthetic of the level, which Ive not seen in an extreme demon much at all. Its one of my favorites overall and Im glad it got rated epic. Hopefully more people try it. I suppose its unique in another way too, that being how the level is difficult. Its largely a gimmicky and timing based level, along with nerve control, which definitely makes for an interesting experience. This is definitely one of the least interesting levels for a frame window counter and I do apologize for that. Theres really not that many difficult timings, but the level is very long and I think theres a genuine truckload of 8f timings in the level, like 75 or more.

![[Top 1] - Unnerfed Firestarter with Frame Windows Counter](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rRE4poZtYaU/mqdefault.jpg "[Top 1] - Unnerfed Firestarter with Frame Windows Counter
Firestarter is a really sick 1.9 nine circles level by Muffy, that really is one of a kind. Its unusual to see an XL nine circles level, let alone one thats 4.5 minutes long. It also uses a song that is not seen in nine circles levels or even gd as a whole. Ive been a big fan since I stumbled upon it in 2023. The level was originally made impossible, but received an official nerfed version, posted on the creators old account, this video being one of the unnerfed ILL version. This one is quite ridiculous, the gaps may not be that difficult but the endurance needed for a level this long is insane.
I would love if someone would verify the nerfed version, as thatd be like upper list demon worthy, but also much more reasonable than this. Chokepoints are insane in the level. I do want to shoutout to a player called Niacin, who was verifying a buffed version of this level, and had achieved 24%, 53-93% and 75-100% on an even harder version than this. However she disappeared completely, wiping all traces of her existence... hope she was doing ok. Those runs wouldve been among the hardest stuff done at the time for sure.

![[Top 10?] - MIGRAINE with Frame Windows Counter](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rfo-mXWrIcg/mqdefault.jpg "[Top 10?] - MIGRAINE with Frame Windows Counter
MIGRAINE is one of Lisps final projects in this game, originally an upcoming top 3. It received much praise for its unique (but pretty epileptic) visuals and effects. It was also very different in the fact that the level is based largely on spam and endurance, rather than raw precision. The frame windows do kinda reflect that, but even so, theres some crazy hard timings towards the end especially. It could be harder than just top 10. The current WRs on the level are 50% and 48-100% by Hover, though I should mention that this version isnt exactly Hovers version, but of another player whos been playing the level alongside his. The two versions are pretty similar and honestly I doubt the frame window counter is much different at all. (i have both copies, but did the FWC on this version since Exlipz0s asked). I tried doing a comparison video but the level kinda breaks reallyyyy hard. Definitely hyped for this, I do imagine Hover will be back on it by the time he finishes Silent Acropolis.

![[Top 20] - Quantum Dominator with Frame Windows Counter](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sW1iRSPPkgY/mqdefault.jpg "[Top 20] - Quantum Dominator with Frame Windows Counter
You probably remember I showcased this level a few days ago, and now you all get a frame window counter on the buffed and balanced version as opposed to the previous one. I wont go deep into the level itself but it is a cool remake and fusion of Quanteuse processing and Geometrical Dominator, as hinted by the name and specific deco / gp tropes throughout. The level as I mentioned has been buffed pretty notably, now with two and sometimes three 1f timings, which really goes to show how much the list has progressed, as this is definitely around Acheron difficulty+. Theitha had some people playtest the level, with varying opinions of, ~35, ~30, ~10, ~5-10 as the four difficulty ranges given. The level has some incredibly wacky sections, like the one UFO part at 84%, which from my testing requires two 6fs to set up into a 3-4f click. If you are even slightly late into the 6f timing (like on the 5th or 6th frame), the third click I mentioned to set up into becomes a 1f. It is very wacky and pretty unbalanced, so this is definitely going to be a hard level. The copy I was given has 24% recorded as a best, so Ill assume Theitha (whos beaten Nullscapes) has that as his best. Goodluck to him!

Celestial Showdown X is a remake and superbuffed version of the hosts (Blaster) very first level. This thing is a collab and has much improved decoration, which Im personally a huge fan of. The last cube isnt the most interesting thing but overall a major improvement over the former. Its also been superbuffed from a mid extreme demon around Bausha Vortex difficulty into a top 15 extreme demon.
I should mention this is before any balancing changes have been applied, the verifier @youngs06 (goat) will use this video to make edits as necessary alongside normal playtesting. The end cube certainly has to be nerfed significantly, as it is literally making the level like top 3 in its current state. Goodluck to youngs on verifying this, hes currently playing Ultra Paracosm and has 27-40% (hardest part) done.
