Welcome to the 57th AR2 B contest: MATERIAL EFFECT

AR2 Version 2.1.2 Beta is used, make sure you use the correct version.

Submit your solutions. You are the Experts after all!
Notes: I will help the EXPERT players with tips and advice to improve, if you send in a solution.

Prices of materials are NOT changed.

SPECIAL RULES APPLY:

At least 1 of EVERY material must be used ..
Viz. at least 1 rope, at least 1 cloth ... etc ... at least 1 rocket!
At least 1 Tension must be used
At least 1 Timer must be used

All solutions must resolve within 100 seconds

All TYPES of material, including the Tension and Timer, MUST have a direct 'Material Effect' on your solution.

The contest creator will test all submitted solutions and reject any that do not demonstrate having a Material Effect!
(If your 1 and only Timer, for instance, can be deleted and the solution still works - then it, the Timer, does not demonstrate a Material Effect. The submission will be rejected.)

(Should you have 2 of something, Timers for instance, then only 1 need have a Material Effect)

The design is simple - it's the default starting screen. What can stop you winning this one?

Light Submissions only please by PM.

Good luck
Never forget THE POWER of the Newbie!

I have a premonition of one big tie here...

OK by me
If you are good enough - you will beet everyone else - and it wont be
(My POC was pathetic!)

Slight hitch you may not have considered, all solutions will be over budget.

Nope - My POC is positive

As are the solutions I've recieved so far.

Ahhh just made a fool of my self, previous comment should be completely ignored.

No worries Mark. It's a learning curve
Dave

A quick rules question here: I currently have a solution where any ONE deleted item will cause failure, but deleting a combination of TWO or more items will make it succeed again. Is this acceptable?


EDIT: My solution no longer behaves this way, but for the sake of the other participants, a ruling would still be nice.

Lets start this at 456+

Lets continue the pattern with $567+ !

And to quote everyone's favorite person, Tiny Carl Jung, "This game challenges me in new ways."

Bingo! Stop a game!
Here best score 992 and I have made it

Very funny, Votart! You caught me! Though if I were you I might have kept that elastic shrinkage trick to myself. Maybe another person wouldnt have seen it?

It's a known trick

lol, I totally forgot about that
But then again I can't recall a competition where I had to use tension on cloth/rope/elastic and money was a deciding factor

All depends on the prices for materials and special rules.
