25 Mar 04 - 04:40 PM (#1146145) Subject: RE: BS: Smack the Penguin!!! From: Little Hawk Yeah, that's good. You gotta hit the Pengy so he bounces a few times. It calls for a somewhat late swing. - LH |

25 Mar 04 - 04:45 PM (#1146152) Subject: RE: BS: Smack the Penguin!!! From: Raedwulf Old. Also short. Hawk, you're old & short... :p I seem to remember concluding, in February, that it was impossible to get more than 595.5m for a bouncing penguin, or 490.5m for a high trajectory penguin (assuming you're playing the original - I've seen at least another two versions that are essentially the same, but have longer distances). So, no, you're a good 40m short of the record, old boy! :p ;) |
25 Mar 04 - 04:49 PM (#1146156) Subject: RE: BS: Smack the Penguin!!! From: Strick Got (593). Is there source code to this anywhere? I could get my oldest boy to add statistics to track your longest distance and you average. |

26 Mar 04 - 06:29 PM (#1147069) Subject: RE: BS: Smack the Penguin!!! From: Raedwulf Blackcatter - that's a different version that gives shorter distances. I tried it, & had a high trajectory penguin come down at under 200m! The rest of you have still got 595.5 as a target... :p On the other hand, here's a challenge which is surprisingly difficult. On the standard version (i.e. a Hawk version, not a BC version), what's the shortest distance you can achieve, having hit the penguin!! 0.0m for a miss doesn't count... ;) |
