Hi All,

With a few days remaining until the 2025 kick off, its time to get ready to save Christmas once more!

This year is only 12 days, but that just leaves the rest of the month for refining solutions and visualizations.

I have setup a bot to post the solutions threads, but as traditional AoC code style, it likely wont work most of the month. I'll try keep on top of it. As always, if there is something I can do better, please let me know!

Also, thanks to @hades for running the Everybody.Codes threads, its a thankless task, but its good to diversify the challenges.

12 days is better IMO, much better chance of more people finishing it. Trying to do 25 days at this. Time of year is practically impossible.

    Yeah, I agree, especially towards the end where it gets harder and busier. I think it would have been better to do one challenge per 2 days, so that it finished at christmas eve, but I guess there is nothing stopping someone taking their time with it.

    If you have one every other day, it's not habit forming, so I could see that reducing engagement.
