No I don't, but wow. You've gotta have a pretty good catcher for 2800+ w/ tension

Ok. I'll think of light a bit.

wow, pretty advanced for me, but heck I'll give it a go :)

2324 L and I took a minimalist approach :)

Centoventi means 100 something I think? since CXX is 120 in roman numerals.

yea, sort of thought that but wasn't sure.

I know I probably won't win because you guys are putting higher scores than me, but I may join in for fun.

Look at the map. Think of the utmost simplest approach. That one only costs 2580+

The simpliest is 2602 to be honest :)

We're prolly talking about the same approach I was just lazy and used extra clothe to avoid any tweaking at all

can't get much simpler than two pieces of cloth and some tension.

I also got to that solution with the 2602 FF.

edit: Ike, I used a different solution (although not too different) for the 2602 than for the 2324.

That 2602 is easy to convert to 2702... But this is stub end :/
