My best result so far is over 2100. :wink:


Well, mine is too, but I can't make any more predictions at this point :)

You people have got to be lying. I've used no tension, timers, elastic, rubber, or rockets and I could barely break $1800.

Perhaps "lying" isn't the right choice of words here :) Since it's in the rules that it is allowed to "bluff", it really isn't fair to call folks liars if they choose to bluff a score.

I'm not saying anyone is/is not bluffing here.

Where there's a will there's a way!! :)

2250 - And that's after developing a totally new mechanism that I've never seen used in any solution before.

I just don't see how 2300+ would be possible. (However, if Bob says he has done it I'm almost 100% sure he has :?)

I hope Bob and Peter and Ogre are bluffing. :(

$2946. I rigged something up with a metal plate, a short piece of cloth, and the rest in string. I'm like some kind of Armadillo MacGyver. I suggest everyone who sent in an entry to send in another email and revoke your entries, to save yourselves from embarassment.
