Partial posting does not always apply using two blocks. It can be a block followed by any block-[[acting wall]], such as a normal [[wall]], a [[lock]], a [[computer chip]], [[dirt]], a closed [[toggle wall]], or very rarely, a passing [[monster]].

== ''Abednego'' ==
A famous example of a partial post using a monster is the now-legendary level by [[Eric Schmidt]] named ''Abednego'', which is the third of three [[fire]] levels with the names of the Three Young Men from the Book of Daniel (Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego).
At the start, Chip is forced to run away from a [[bug]] on top of a [[computer chip]] at [31, 0] and moves through several teleports to escape the fire areas. Hordes of [[monster]]s guard the other chips in the level, but to reach the chip at the start, Chip has to specifically move the single [[block]] in the level to coordinate [13, 5], and at the ''exact'' moment that a monster moves onto coordinate [13, 6], Chip has to teleport south from [21, 5] into [21, 6], and therefore move to [31, 1] and around to the last chip.
Since Chip is unable to see [13, 6] from [21, 5] and requires a ''minimum'' walk of [23], possibly more due to a random [[force floor]], to be able to see it - not to mention the difficulty of the rest of the level - the level is all but impossible and was never solved until it was fixed. The current version can be downloaded at [[David Stolp]]'s website.

Partial posting is a technique involving teleports, named after the level it is first used in Chip's Challenge 1. In a partial post, you must block the exit of one teleport, usually with blocks, to appear out of the next teleport. Here is a basic example:

Normally, traveling left through teleport 3 would bring Chip to [5, 1]; to the left of teleport 2. To skip that teleport and win the level, Chip must block teleport 2's exit. First, Chip must push block 1 through the teleport to [4,1]. Then he must push block 2 through the teleport. It will appear at [5,1]. Since normally attempting to push two consecutive blocks will result in an "oomph", teleport 2 is blocked from exiting on the left side. If Chip enters teleport 3, he will now skip teleport 2 and exit out of teleport 1 to the exit.

Partial posting does not always apply using two blocks. It can be a block followed by any block-acting wall, such as a normal wall, a lock, a computer chip, dirt, a closed toggle wall, or very rarely, a passing monster.

CCLP uses

In CC1, the only level where partial posting is require is Partial Post itself. It is seen several more times in CCLP1, CCLP2, CCLP3, and CCLP4.
