'''You Can't Teach an Old Frog New Tricks''' is the 144th level in [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 3]]. It was famous for its unprecedented complexity and difficulty long from the very introduction of the level in [[Madhav Shanbhag]]'s KeyboardWielder.dat: the solution requires an almost endless array of puzzles with often unusual, convoluted solutions that have to be set up such that a [[teeth]] can move through them without being killed, as it is required to ''fully'' solve many of them.
'''You Can't Teach an Old Frog New Tricks''' (often abbreviated YCTaOFNT) is the 144th level in [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 3]]. It was famous for its unprecedented complexity and difficulty long from the very introduction of the level in [[Madhav Shanbhag]]'s KeyboardWielder.dat: the solution requires an almost endless array of puzzles with often unusual, convoluted solutions that have to be set up such that a [[teeth]] can move through them without being killed, as it is required to ''fully'' solve many of them.


Most of the puzzles are arranged such that the teeth will chase [[Chip]] according to a single, fixed position - inside a [[trap]] - and the goal in that sector being to get the teeth all the way through to release the [[brown button]]. Hints to this goal first appeared on April Fools' day (2010), and also feature in the [[CCLP3 storyline]].

In response to [https://forum.bitbusters.club/thread-2099.html/ a thread at the BitBusters Forums], the designer posted a levelset displaying different versions of the level as it evolved from its initial concept to completion.
