It's B league, it's meant to be tough. Just one hint---cheap elastic :wink: It's just a construction job, you shouldn't need any weird or wonderful tricks but don't expect a cheap solution, 300 to 400 should be achievable, just a little heavy engineering will be needed to catch the big Dillo.

Yeah, I noticed that. Still tricky, though. Anyway, finally completed the level but with only $60+ :lms: :(

Haven't had too much time to look at it yet but got the red one in the portal and the purple going through the portal. Now to make a catcher for this rather large dillo...

OK so this is a tough level, is that a problem, I have seen many that are more difficult, some in the A league.

B league is supposed to be for the more experienced player and should be a challenge to solve, the few of us that continue to play this game are fairly experienced so it is surely favourable to have fairly difficult contests especially in the B league.

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1003 This link goes to the original guide lines for level design and describes the difference between the A & B league contests. A league should take up to 1.5 hours to solve and 3 hours for the B league. I can't remember ever taking more than 30 minutes to solve a level since I became experienced in the game.

I would like to know how other players feel about this. Should all contests be solvable in a short space of time or do you want levels that put your knowledge and ingenuity to the test :D I for one would much prefer levels that are a challenge.

Time for contest is not enough for good solution!
I don't know: may be add or not?

Oh good :D :D but is this at your desired degree of difficulty or would you prefer easier.

I like both. I wouldn't want all the competitions to be one way or another. I do appreciate the fact that this is a B league competition and that sometimes the B league competitions are even easier than the A league competitions.

Tough levels are just a little intimidating at first, but once you get a solution, they're not so bad. Maybe if you just allowed more money or something like that, then it would seem less daunting.

Don't think it will be too hard, but my first impression when I looked at the level was :shock: '
You can probably expect my first solution tonight.
