The :lms: winner is Cresta with an amazing score of 2340 or 8 metal plates.
Since no dark score exceeded Cresta light score no dark medal this time.
Non-vet :lms: medal goes to JimCDubb.
Congrats guys.
Cresta, 100th B contest is all yours. Take your time, we will be waiting for it. :idea:

Oh it seems my entry didn't make it into the results. I emailed it :(

Well incase anyone is interested, I had an identical catcher to Cresta, but I didn't need to roll it over. The ball made it all the way to the anchor point and hit it to slow down and fall into the catcher. However to achieve it I needed one extra plate in the launcher which was the same is Mikee7's but with an extra plate. I'm surprised you didn't do the same Mikee. One extra plate makes all the difference. Overall it took 9 plates.

I was trying an 8 with one less plate in the launcher, and doing what Cresta did and let the catcher flip over to knock on the dillo. I had that working but ran out of tweaking time to actually get it to both knock on and catch. Nevermind.

Not much point sending in those results unless anyone actually requests them. Some of my more expensive lauchers are more interesting to see.

I'll not be competing in this new B league. That type of level design doesn't interest me. No offense Cresta, just not my personal taste.

V4nKw15h, no offense for me if you don't like my level...
As you know I like much more to design smaller level, but I tought the 100th B league deserved a little more!
Actually I don't know why you shouldn't like it, why you don't give it a chance?

Anyway, I am interested in seeing your solutions of this 99th contest, can you post them up?

Okay here you go. Solutions from 9 plates to 13 plates used. Lots of different launchers.

Also included my 8 plates solution that I never got a chance to tweak to work. Damn work getting in the way of AR :)
