Yes that what Mek did is the way that I thought it. I surprised that there is so many ways to to that puzzle, but I think that it's a good think Smile

Great job on this one. Really made me think. Not sure why you can't put portals on the angled concrete walls, that's kind of odd. The portal bumper thing annoyed me, but it's my pet peeve in Portal maps. If the bumbers aren't working try making them a func_non_portal_volume, it's worked for me in the past. I did kind of miss GLaDOS making some kind of remark when the camera falls. Funny we miss that but none of the other overused quotes.

One very small suggestion and I admit this is getting picky but you may want to start using "mitered" edges. I'll try to explain what I mean. When making a window frame (for example) instead of just putting your vertical brushes on top of your horizontal ones, make all the corners at 45 degree angles. Use the Vertex tool to do this. When you apply the textures they will blend and look smoother. Here's a sample, the one on the right is mitered:



Again, I know this is very picky but take it as a compliment that this is the only visual suggestion I could come up with.

Other than that great map, good looking, fun to play. Keep up the good work.

I just managed the least portals as well. Took some major time to think it through.
