OTFPOTD-Fantastic Contraption addition (also, Halloween)

Tiny by Thingray on Comment 864 comments

Okay, so Fantastic Contraption now rules my life. Feel free to post your triumphs, tribulations, and disasters here (I still can't make a suitable catapult, but my tanks kick ass).

Also, y'all are invited to my local pub for Halloween. Big costume contest and cash prizes if any of you are in the north end (also a chance to meet Thingray and Jeanuts). Details to follow if anyone is interested (I won't advertise for them unless someone is interested).

Please reference LL bowling night. I haven't read the post yet, but I'm already excited!

BTW, I didn't jump the gun this time, I was just the only one up late enough to post this thing this early in the morning! HA!!

Lame tags to follow:

Stuck on level 6 or so, how do you make a catapult?

Make a triangle with a moving wheel at the top

then put a wood rod out straight out from the side of the circle, then attache a blue rod to the end of the wood rod and to one of the hooks on the wheel. This is really basic but you’ll get more ideas from seeing this simple one in action.

How did you start out with one ball already in the front?

One of the balls is inside the box

So it can be moved to wherever you want

Having four in the back wasn’t a huge problem, though, I think it might’ve been possible

So I figured out a desing that should work.

I’m obsessed with it because it contains just three wheels, but so far I haven’t gotten the placement right.

Times like these I miss the Cloud Room

But, straight down Pine gets you to Von’s which is ok. Up the hill 2.5 blocks to Baltic Room. Six Arms is over on Pike, but meh. There is a bar in the convention center last time I was in there, also meh. You could hit the bar in Gameworks also.

All that said Nitelite may be the best choice.

You can put things anywhere in the box.

In fact, putting wheels on top helps if you have a tank that likes to roll over.

Of course!

Halloween on Frenchman St is pretty much the greatest thing ever. It’s like all of the fun of Mardi Gras compressed into a single night. Have you been before?

by FlaskInSafeco on Oct 31, 2008 9:44 AM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, it's just people in the streets everywhere with really great costumes.

There’s bars and clubs playing live music, but I’d recommend bringing some booze along, because it takes forever to get a drink. I always end up running into just about everyone I know in town while I’m down there. I’ve never been to the Krewe of Boo before, but that should be fun. I’m going to a party before I head down there at my friends’ house.

Krewe of Boo is new this year, but the Mollie's parade that rolls after it is awesome.

Oh good, flasks are just so darn handy.

I’m building a costume right now, but I’m not sure if it will work. I’m planning on making a cylinder out of cardboard that I can wear, and painting it brown and sticking branches on it. Then I’ll but a big red letter B on it and go as a B-log.

If that doesnt work then I’ll go with my permanent stand-by: a baseball costume my mother made for me when I was eight. It’s “signed” by Ken Griffey Jr.

For some reason they give us each our own hotel room.

I don’t know why, I have two beds. What the hell am I to do with two beds? I’d rather room with someone so I have someone to hang out with. And most everybody is asleep, or getting there. My sleep schedule is a little weird though.

Didn't stay in the goal though.

It stayed there a lot longer than mine did though, I’ll give you that!

Is that the car from the VW ads?

I’d rather have that then the A-Team van.

Man do I love midgets.

I dunno...

I’d like the A-Team van because it comes with that reel-to-reel tape deck thingy. And guns.

Was it actually used in the show?

Cause I can build one myself for about 10 grand at the most.

Yes, it is...

At least according to that web site it is.

That's pretty cool then.

I met a guy at a Mopar swap meet who had one of the actual General Lees from Duke of Hazzard.

I just dropped a ton of cash on a present for my wife.

I’ll save my $10 for beer and just assume Alaskan did something very cool.

I like the shirt too.

The part that cracks me up is he says “no more than 115lbs”, then goes on to say “no skinny chicks, I like women with meat on them”.

Wasn't saying that I didn't like it.

I love it, in fact. But a guy like that wearing it makes me laugh for some reason

Oh. My. God.

That guy is a pig.

by Phildopip on Oct 31, 2008 2:52 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Because he's pink and pudgy?

He reminds me of that character in Lord of the Flies…

Or was it the sexism?

Sexism, mostly.

But, yeah, he’s also a little piggish.

Pigs are clean, delicious animals.

Please don’t compare this guy to them.
