If so, and if nobody makes anything better, then you win. I'd never even have thought of this method if you hadn't posted that ridiculously high score ;)

But BFC will do 2840 anyway.

This relates to my PM to you earlier Peter :)

As to me besting everyones scores, well all I can say is you guys are just not giving yourselves enough credit :) I don't think my solution will win based on what you all have posted.

Sleep on it BioDroid. You'll get it within 5 minutes when you come back to it.

$2854 but completely un-original so I don't think I'll be submitting it.

I would like to see $2852 :D .

I imagine > $2830 is possible ( without force) but I just don't see any quick way to get it all happening :? .

I think I'll leave it at 2830 unless I have a radically new idea. Like king I don't see a way to improve on that without spending an inordinate amount of time.

But I'm looking forward to seeing it ;)

Ok I must admit. I have seen through many new solutions that have come in.
I will not say so mutch. But one thing is for sure: Physics can be very cute! Keep up the good work, everyone! 8)

I can't even imagine $2830 being possible without force, let alone > $2830!!!

Bring on the solutions!

Also, lets hope protest boy is bluffing, or else I don't have a shot at the force prize either!
