Friday Time Waster
People suck.
I don't think you need to dice suckatude up into little groups of "clients" or "mean people"... it saves you a lot of effort just to put the whole human race into one big ball of suck. - Mr Sparkle

Re: Friday Time Waster
tanks for the links. I managed to get to one, where there was a gap, and it looked like you had to somehow push the large round ball into the gap to fill it up, and slowly get over there...couldnt figure it out though..

I probably made this a lot more complicated than it has to be, but it works.

Re: Friday Time Waster
WOW, you're my HERO! I never would've thought there's be a way to get the object to the goal before the ball fell. I kept thinking you had to build something to crawl up on the ball and roll it away. You're a genius. Now thanks to your generous genius I can waste time with the next level!Trent Steel wrote:I probably made this a lot more complicated than it has to be, but it works.

I was trying to make something to scoot under the ball. I almost had it, but couldnt get enough movement to get the ball up.

Here's one I'm not proud of making, but it cracks me up to see it work.

I got ill watching that one work. It's like some evolutionary reject that manages to survive despite its obvious flaws. One can only hope some predator will swoop down and put it out of its (and our) misery.stessier wrote:This is a blast.

That, and it hadn't occurred to me to use free-standing wooden rods.
It's almost as if people are the problem.

It will suck countless seconds of your time. Well, you could count them, if you were so inclined.

Re: Friday Time Waster
http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=1472982 Tube! For the first time in many levels I figured this one out for myself without looking at anyone else's design. (Well I did it by myself for Down Under, too, but that took hours of tweaking a sub-par design http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=1473044 ) This is a fun game. Thank GOD other people can (and do) link their designs so you can get ideas and cheat past levels where you're stuck.
