Welcome to 151st B Contest: Further

Submissions by PM

Naming convnetion is:
[Distance]-[DollarsRemaining]-[YourForumName]-[SolutionName]

Example:
45-11337-Votart-Silak

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

I know you like twists in the rules, so here they are.

  • Your objective is to get as far as you can before the dillo exits the level.
  • The unit of measurement is 1 metal plate length. The maximum you can reach is 51.
  • The scale below the metal plates will help you find the distance you've traveled.
  • Once you've overstepped the corresponding anchor of a number, this number becomes your distance. Whole numbers only (no decimal fractions).
  • If it's hard to measure while the dillo is fading out, enable tracking mode (press 'v' once or select it from the "Change view" menu) and point your finger to where the dillo is. When the level is done, your finger will indicate the result.
  • Ultralight solutions only. If the scores are equal, money will determine the winner.
  • Have fun!

I made this level on Thursday, 17. May 2007, never thought it'd become a competition two years later :lol:

Just done a quick Dark :) . This is a nice original idea, how do you get the Dillo to behave as if it is already inside the portal :?:

35+ :dms:

I was playing this level for a bit. I know, you have a handicap (time), but anyway...
51 :dms: is easy, made in 10 minutes, using ionLauncher :) 29700, but can be tweaked a lot (about 70$ I suppose), maybe basic dark launchers even cheaper, but I don't want to waste my time on them.
40 :lms: is also easy, mi2launcher (ultra light) & 20 minutes...but then I got a problems, I need brains or time :)

P.S. I'm sorry fellows, I don't have too much free time and now I also spend part of my free time on poker. So I will observe your game, but will not participate. Even in this one, I think. Maybe later, I don't know, possible...who knows. Good luck everyone!

It's a shame you don't compete Ioncorpse. I think I know what problem you encountered around 40 and I found a solution for it. 8)
