AR2 A 235 BigGuy results
Posted: Tue Mar 05, 2013 3:32 pmOnly two competitors for BigGuy, disappointingly. 
1st with 1832 was Rob. Congratulations!
2nd with 1742 was Mark_man.
Rob executed a perfect "over the top" launch, demonstrating what I thought would be one of just many entry variants. I think he's done a perfect job though, and can't see how it can be improved or beaten. I was even somewhat dismayed to see how effortlessly it could be done. Not just his minimal launcher, but also the economical brake for BigGuy.
Mark_man opted for propping BigGuy in his start location - something I wasn't expecting anyone would try. And yet it proved surprisingly competitive.
The first POC showed how to squeeze through underneath, and I rebuilt it to show a fourth route that could be taken. Interesting, perhaps, but neither would ever be winners - even mark_man's solution beats them easily.
