Welcome to the 8th AR2 B league contest: Purple.

AR2 Beta1 version is used. Cheapest solution wins. All solutions considered as light.
50$ penalty for every jackhummer, which will be used in solution.

Prices not changed.

I tried to make it simple. I hope it is. I also hope it's not simple to achive good score, few traps/tricks was added.
BTW: Another gray Hulk, but he is peaceful.

Great level!
2250+

This is a good one .Easy to solve but I should be able to tweak for hours.

I believe I am very near my final score for the level, and OH MY GOODNESS. One tiny tweak in one catcher causes another to fail, and tweaking THAT catcher causes a third piece to fail, and so on back to the first. >.< Took half an hour to get everything to settle right. On the plus side I have confidence that I will rank very highly again on this one! I found a bug in the editor I've been itching to show off in a contest...

[markmadras]

After some major tweaking things are looking good for me too

My POC is 2904
Could you gain more?

[sendai45]

2900+ is possible, eh? Then there must be another trick I don't know about....
After a bit of work I've found an untweaked solution that is exactly the same score as my previous Final. I doubt I can reach 2900, though.
