No pressure, but after you finish, it tells you how long it took you to do it. I was very slow, but I didn't know I was being timed.

I couldn't solve it correctly. It has to be touts and honts or tiuts and hints. I couldn't make it work.

Definitely "donts" (as in "dos and don'ts") and, IIRC, touts.
