All this discussion of cheating just has me thinking of more hilarious ways to try to cheat.
New idea: Slingshot.
Step 1)
Have Corona and Maytag head into Phase 2 with ends of a giant slingshot and a bucket of adhesive (non-magical). Glue the ends of the slingshot to the walls of Phase 2 (near the end, right by the steps).
Step 2)
Have Corona, Maytag, and anyone else who can get through Phase 1 help pull the slingshot back. In addition, strong people outside phase 1 pull back with a rope. A heavy metal bar strong is laid across the door to the Dark Cell to create an anchor point. Once the slingshot is drawn back to the entrance to Phase 1, it is tied in place on the metal bar via a short length of rope.
Step 3)
Melter (or some other small, light individual) is covered with pillows and equipped with a padded helmet.
Step 4)
Corona carries Melter into Phase 1 enough to get him into the slingshot "seat". Melter will be paralyzed with fear and unable to resist (or could be drugged if that doesn't work).
Step 5)
Once Melter is in position, Corona moves behind the slingshot and cuts the rope with her sword. Thus released, the slingshot fires Melter into the Dark Cell, carrying Melter into Phase 3 or beyond. The padding (hopefully) prevents injury upon impact.
The ingenious part of this is we have no idea how Melter would react to Phase 2 or 3 (having never gotten that far). His makeup makes it impossible for him to beat phase 1, but he might be better suited to the other two phases. Even if the slingshot didn't fully work, it would at least get him beyond Phase 1.
....
This is fun. ^^
