Welcome to 149th B Contest: Loops!
Welcome to my first contest! We will be departing from normal rules on this one, so read carefully!
Special rules:
*NEW: PERPETUAL MOTION MACHINES ARE DARK, AND WILL NOT QUALIFY FOR A LIGHT MEDAL!
* The goal of this contest is to loop around the center square as many times as possible, then exit through the portal.
* The ultralight submission with the most loops wins.
* If there is a tie for loops, the cheapest solution wins.
* Both clockwise and anticlockwise solutions are acceptable.
Example of 0 loops: http://tinypic.com/r/5pnekz/3
Example of 1 loop: http://tinypic.com/r/5zjl7b/3
Example of 2 loops: http://tinypic.com/r/24wxes6/3
Naming convention is:
[LoopsCompleted]-[DollarsRemaining]-[YourForumName]-[SolutionName]
Example:
3-1500-Anon54-Rollercoaster
Contest Ends: 3 August 2009 at 21:00 GMT

Good luck and I hope you enjoy!
EDIT: Remember! The armadillo must leave through the portal to count as a valid solution! (No infinite loops)
If your solution takes more than 2 minutes to complete, please tell me how long it takes in your submission.
