The river is down and the betting is over! Alright, boys, time to show us your hands!

And the winner, with $1912 :lms:

, is..... A TIE! Congratulations Rob and V4nk! You both hit upon the same solution. Very well done.

Normally we would split the pot between the two of you, but in this case we need a tie-breaker. The first one to submit his final solution was V4nKw15h, and so to the winner go the spoils!

A special thanks to Arunion for his last-minute entry. It's not cheap, but it sure is pretty!
(Where was your entry, Dave? I saw you bidding early on in the contest.

Oh if only I had remembered a couple of tricks then maybe I would have drawn with Vankwish :lol:

Well done to all

Nice one rob for finding the same swing.

Easy when you know how eh?

Yes it is, was a lot easier to tweak than my other solutions

It was basically my first solution after about 45 mins of experimenting. The only difference was I first attached the falling bars to the swing with rope to yank it. Didn't take long to realise I could simply bash them into the swing. Then a little tweaking of the catcher and job done.

The swing is still highly under appreciated and probably the best launcher in the game now that dark forces are gone.
