What a great fight for the finish this one was.

First it was Ioncorpse running away with it, then Sendai takes the lead, then ioncorpse then Sendai again.


Ultimately the insane tweaking pushed the score to
:lms: 750 ioncorpse
but Sendai still beat him on at least the bottom right solution by $6 if I remember correctly. So close Sendai :)

So many totally different ways to solve each corner. Great job guys.

Very good solutions!
I'm not a pro in light catchers, I invented a wheel :) Use of AR2 engine in things, that could be done cheaper using AR1 techincs... perfect right-bottom catcher, sendai!
We have found new tricks :D

Fantastic work by Sendai and Ioncorpse, some highly inventive use of welding.

That has broken my run of getting second place, but I'm going to get 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th in the A league if nobody else has a go :lol:

Arrg! Brilliant upper-left catcher, Ioncorpse! I knew I should be using the same pull technique as upper-right, but I was thinking with metal sheets, and could not manage is with only 2 link lengths to work with. The added rope/cloth length is what makes it possible... So close! it's also neat to notice how our lower-left catchers both rely on rope to alter the weight's angle for the balancing issue, yet we placed the angle on opposite sides of the catcher. Same price in the end!
