I find myself pondering the weight difference between 100 dollars worth of clothe and a rubber. I knew this day would come.

Seems that 100$ worth of cloth is much heavier than one full rubber.

I did a balance experiment and its very close to 104$ of cloth to 2 full rubber peices.

almost a 2:1 wieght/cost!

in other news the second level is very challenging.... :P

Edit: another surpising result
100$ Cloth < 100$ rope
not that it helps but i guess its good to know.

Ya it didn't take long to realize clothe is heavier. And the second level is dam hard to finish :/

2548 on the first level

Yeah, I expected that second level will be the most challenging :) It took about 5 minutes to make easy and pretty crappy proof-of-concept for it.

Rubber is 2 times the mass of cloth per meter, 4 times rope. At least that is what I have written down.

I'll play in this one, although I doubt I will win with the current competition :?

$6908 Total

you don't mention whether the best light solution (or just best solution light or dark) will win this competition.

i seem to be thinking about this alot on level 2.

The best light solutions gets a medal and if the best dark solution is better than the best light solution then they get a dark medal as well. Unless the host says otherwise, that's usually how it works.

$7352 Total.

I worked hard on that and it seems WAY off from the $7500 mark. Would any psychic people out there tell me which one of the three levels is the culprit?! Thanks in advance :wink: .
