Room 68 was devastated by the system tester, which left only 2 solutions in the whole room. The room leader going into the challenge phase, bonkers, was hit with two challenges, dropping him to 6th place. However, after the system test ravaged everyone's solutions, his 428.74 points for the level 3 was enough to win him the room, and a 1411 debut rating.
