well, seems i can beat the game without camping levers as well.. ok, a little camping was involved, but it was nothing compared to my 1st win. Looks like i'm getting the hang of this game now :)
edit: oh yeah, this game started as an experiment to get all the traits (that's why the character is called pwrlvlr 0.o), but i got bored very fast this time.. i think i stopped pulling levers after level 5.
