Ok, so Drago's level is attached into my post and wolterw's is linked about 5 posts below this (or click here) due to some confusion about the level submission. Though you know who made which level, we may as well have voting on them, since they both actually made a level. So, let's leave the voting for another week, til October 14th.

Well, Since we only had 1 entrant, I guess we have our winner already. I'm really impressed with his design, despite the so-so distance.

Congrats Drago.

Here's his level and a background that goes with it.

Come on, guys. Matacus should be at least 3 weeks long.

No offence, Drago, but it isn't a trebushet but crap. It even won't work without timer, and throwing distance made me laughing. I understand that it isn't easy to make even such one, so we needed much more time for work! I planned to make entry too, but it was extremely surprising for me to see results today.

LOL, forgot about the due date, but I agree with NickyNick here, this one was way too short. I was planning on making a trebuchet but was looking around at saves to see how people make a long swing arm or something.

Well, so you think that I should lie and say "Congratz Drago! It is great!!! I love this super design", as you did? I said why I haven't sent my entry. You'd better laugh on yourself, understood?

Johnny, I sent my solution to your email address on Oct 6. What happened? You didn't receive it , did you?
The solution I sent is attached to this post. It is up to you to consider it as a participant of the contest or not.

WolterW, did you send it to the email I mentioned in the starting post or the one in my forum profile? The one I registered for the forum with is currently out of date, but I haven't updated it because of the asinine moderator approved registration.

Either way, I updated the initial post for voting on these. I'll try to make my email address more clear next time, though I can't help you guys who didn't read the end date I announced.

harsh dude
------------------------------------------
Wolter, that is awesome! You got my vote!
Can we end the voting now?

I sent mine in because he said he had no submissions. I did the best I could.

EDIT: The problem was mainly with where the armadillo was. I was using a sling design, trying to maintain the sleek look of a real life trebuchet (I have never seen one with ropes and things like wolter's [wolter did it because these weak materials cant support themselves. I believe he did it quite well, btw]). If I simply put a basket on the end instead, it works surprisinly well. Yes, I know it only works because of the out-of boundaries thing, but that is fixable. I just don't want to spend the time doing it.

EDIT2: Mine is just as good as wolters now. I copy pasted this into his level.

7:0

I think we can stop it, if Drago confirm his defeat.
