2700 is pretty good

I think this level is a pretty well designed one, in that I have no idea what method of getting the armadillo out of the box will prove the cheapest.

Every 'alternative' box-get-out-of-er I make ends up being very similar in price to the simple method.

Hello everybody this is my first contest. I love AR and when i found out there were contests with new levels twice a week i jumped on board. What does the plus mean next to a dollar amount. I am at 2720+ i believe. If plus means what i think it means.With a light solution.

+ means 'add $500 or so'.

2720+ is very competative, most of the good solutions (IMO) will be around there. However there is a LOT of room on this level for some whizz kid to come up with a cool launching idea which blows the rest of us out of the water. :lol:

2720+ is very competitive

Just to add some spice to the competition:

I reckon 2250+ is possible.

err.. typo?

I'm pretty sure around 2820 is possible... not that I have it, but I have something along those lines that nearly works. Of course, nearly working is not working, and not working just isn't good enough.
