User blog:Blackbird625/Level 289 DW Complete!

Finally! After nearly 200 attempts on that horrible level, I finally won! I had a very lucky first Moon Struck, which cleared a huge amount of candies needed. Unfortunately, purples were cleared for five moves, so I needed to make those up. When I had one move left, all I needed to collect were six purple candies. I had completely forgotten the second Moon Struck at zero moves left. I was so close to flipping off my tablet (yes, I almost stuck up my middle finger) when I made the last move because I forgot about Moon Struck. Then, Moon Struck cleared lots of candies, causing cascades to collect the remaining purple candies.

Attempt count: Nearly 200.

Moves remaining: 0.

Stars: 3.

Score: 120,340

I'm so happy because I won! Not only won, but with three stars! Now that might be a coincidence because I had a dream of beating Level 289 DW with three stars and 22 moves remaining. Not only that, but I won on an iPad! I have a screenshot for proof of three stars.
