MODERATORS
Day 1 wasn't so bad, depending on approach. People got tripped up hard with replacing strings because of the old "twone." If you didn't happen to do string replacements it wasn't so bad.
Day 3 absolutely wrecked me though - and my overall rank was still pretty significantly better than it had been on days 1 and 2.
On the flip side, twone absolutely ruined my life. Worst part was that I was looking at it and thinking "yes I handled that edge case and am only taking the first number, why's it not working"
Everything else has been a breeze. I'm using typescript and it's been chill.
