Let me just dis right quick:  Level 96 (Mayhem 6) is TOO easy, if you really 
sit down and think about it.

What you have to do is, you have to let them walk left and as soon as the first one hits the pit, make him start building.  Just let the others collect in the 
pit while the dude is building, and when he gets to the first step to the right
let him turn around and start him building again.

Now, to make the first lemming a loner, make another lemming dig through the 
bridge that the first one made, and that will make all the other fellas
just lounge in that little pit while the first lemming finishes his work.

Once he gets to the top of the second step, let him walk and fall onto that 
little mound, and I'm not sure, but I think you have to let him reach the peak
of the mound, make him dig Straight Down, then make him Mine, then make him
Build, he'll hit his head and give up, and walk the other way, when he reaches
the bottom of the shaft he dug, make him Mine again, once he digs through that
make him Build across that gap, and he should be home free.  Then make one of
the fellas in that little pit a builder (MAKE SURE HE IS BUILDING TO THE RIGHT)
and all the other fellas should truck on throo.

You know, I wanna say that I hear a lot of people cryin about how Lemmings
is nothing but a bang-your-head game and that it's weak because you can figure
out the puzzle in 30 seconds but it takes dayz to complete it because you did
not do something right.  Well, what game isn't like that?  In Dungeon Master
you die because you pushed the wrong button or flipped the wrong switch.  IN
Super Mario Brothers you die because you couldn't get a super jump...i.e, YOU
f*cked up.  SO I really think you all need to get a life and quit blaming the
game because you can't get through a level.  It's not the game's fault, really.
And I know I'm gonna get much flames for this, but I don't care.  Lemmings
is really a good game, if it was weak, then why is everybody buying it and
asking questions about it?

Me, I'm waiting for a second Lemmings installment (Lemmings in New York :-) but
this time I want the little motherf*ckers to be able to swim.
