ARFC A CLXXI Obstruction (Ends 18/05/2008 18:00 GMT)

Welcome to the 171th A-league competition: Obstruction.

Solutions to: ddavex@gmail.com or PM.

Some rules:

- You cannot damage the central pillar in any way.
- You can only anchor your construction to the red nodes, you can however attach to any new nodes you have added yourself.
(for example, you can't directly attach anything to the central pillar, but the red bar running through it is okay.)

It's heavy so I hope to see some good solid mechanical constructions here, none of this carefully balanced nonsense we see so much of! :wink:

Veteran and non-veteran medals will be awarded.

I like this level!
But we are supposed not to break it till the end of the simulation? I mean, if we lift it, and then it breaks falling down, then is ok or not?

Awesome level, but, hey ... I thought this was supposed to be the easy league.

Signed, A Rookie :wink:

It's not difficult, it just needs a large budget. Think basic mechanics, there are several ways to convert one sort of motion to a lifting force, for example you could construct a counterweighted pulley similar to the device that launches the 'dillo over the ramp.

Thanks, ddavex.

I was actually half-joking, but since I have worked with it, it isn't as hard as I thought on first glance.

Very creative level!
