The wire checking portion is neat. Problem is 10 seconds is way too short for this kind of thing. :\/"},{"author_name":"Roan Contreras","author_uid":"2043","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 4:21am","epoch":1377490560,"text":"Simple yet fun and addicting.

Yes, it's technically easy to solve the little puzzles, but the luck factor is supposed to play into the &quot;defuse the bomb&quot; scenario.  Which wire do you pull first?  What if you're wrong?   How long can you survive defusing bombs before your luck runs out?\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Maybe I should add that to the description so people know that it's coming, they know that their luck is going to run out.  Thanks for the feedback, I'll change the description a bit."},{"author_name":"Mr. Jif","author_uid":"19204","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 7:01pm","epoch":1377543360,"text":"Very Nice.
