Welcome to the 147th B contest: UpOrDown

Want to try something different here. In order to win you have to go trough one of the numbered gates and into the portal. You have to multiply your dollars remaining with the number in the gate you used.
If you have 500$ remaining going trough gate 2 your Score is 500x2=1000 points
If you have 400$ remaining going trough gate 3 your Score is 400x3=1200 points

The contest ends 21/7/9 2200 gmt

Best Ultralight solution wins

Submissions by pm

Naming convention is:[Score]-[YourForumName]-[SolutionName]

GMT Time link: http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/

Hope you all like this twist to the rules. Succes :armadillo:

An interesting twist. Is 2000 :lms: too high for a start?

I think 2000 is just fine. Glad you like it. Had this idea for multiplying scores for some time but never came around to making something. Didn't test much so I hope it turns out balanced and we see both up and down solutions.

I think that "Down" solution will be more expensive than "Up" :D

I am not so sure about that, Votart! In theory it takes less energy to go down and then up.

Thanks :oops:
I received some solutions and I am pretty pleased with the contest so far. If I had to make this level again I would make it a lot higher so that the highest multiplier is (almost?) not reachable.

Here 18 nominations was possible to define for the best capture of each of gate and to give out 18 :lms: & 18 :dms: :D :D :D
EDIT: See here - It's cool. Author - soulriver.
EDIT2: Nobody raises. All have hidden. 4010+10*9+ :lms: :D
