Plot amount of rotation against how far out the core is. That will eventually produce a map of the paths and show you the way out.

What about this stuff I have heard about counting moves ? what are they referring to ? I know from memory how to get to a certain point then stuck again.

Memory from repetition is the best way to solve the blue. I made a map, but could quite easily complete the maze after without using any aid. I cant say the same for the other revos though ;)

Try to get access to the registered blue forum. There's many threads which discuss these and other issues. You are at "that point" in the blue. We've all been there. Rest asurred that it is solvable.

The best advice I ever got for the blue was to make a careful, accurate drawing of the traps.

Traps are just paths that lead to the star of the maze. They're easy to map and it's useful to know where they are.

So it really is possible to solve this in under a minute even with the trap line?
