I'll keep trying, can't promise anything though. Sorry to disappoint.

[jdelgado06]

I'm posting my solve at 3pm today (central time, USA). So if kladdy or anyone else wants to give it a shot you have about 6.5 hours

FYI - DDESG

I quit. Here are my solutions:

http://www.fantasticcontraption.com/?designId=11381863 11pc (initial solve)
http://www.fantasticcontraption.com/?designId=11385525 10pc
http://www.fantasticcontraption.com/?designId=11387077 9pc new design
----
http://www.fantasticcontraption.com/?designId=11387196 8pc ipecac fail


Would love someone to tweak in that 8pc... it's half a pixel away on the big ball...

[Kai Laddiman]

Very impressive solutions, I wouldn't have been able to come close to them. Sorry for my lack of participation.

[Dean-o]

How about round two between me and you, Kai?

[Kai Laddiman]

That's a good idea. Could someone supply a (possibly slightly easier than Crusher's) level please?

Looks good, are we allowed to move the ball?

Good question. No, my intention was for the round goal piece to be treated hands off.

Nice guest solve jdel. Now try it hands off.

EDIT: You could both submit a hands off and a non-hands off and I'll add the piece counts. If you want
some extra contraptioning to do.

[jdelgado06]

Remind me about hands off... I know we can't move the ball, can we attach to it?

[Cruiser40]

No moving, no attaching.

[jdelgado06]

How's this Kai v Deano matchup going? I submitted my guest solves

[Kai Laddiman]

I have a solution (albeit not a very good one) and can't improve on it, so I guess I'll lock in. Fun level

Same. I haven't had much time for FC lately with exams, friends, and other hobbies, so I locked in with the best I could conjure.

I submitted my guest solves

Hmm?

I guess we can post ours then.
