Design of the Millenium

[Dr. Phil]

Poor built, I agree.. But an overly complex contraption that beats a level that can be solved with 0 (or actually, 2) pieces, might be a very jealousy description of the Design of the Millenium..

Furthermore.. I just completely lost interest in this game, as I can not hope to achieve the brilliance of some other people..

tho I will probably come back anyway

No, the difference is that it solved it in the easy way. Now if it was an overly complex contraption that solves the level in an overly complex way, like Sumaleth's, then I would be impressed. It would be like making a 70 piece car that runs the ball into 'rolling away' whats the point?

Tear, tear. The "Design of the Century" and the "Design of the Millennium" doesn't win for me...

Hey guys, if you keep testing and it still doesn't work, check out this link, it is a YouTube clip, now just skip to the 4th minute and enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAlSAO7eQxs There are some pretty amazing "other" designs in it too.

The more complex and the longer a contraption runs, the more likely the math will be off. The difference is CPUs. Most PCs should behave the same as most PCs, most Macs should behave the same as most Macs, but there'll be slight differences between the two. New generations of processors (like that new 8mb cache octo-core) might have some significant differences too.

Simulating physics our low-powered computers is a tricky thing

after the apple intel transition in 2006 PCs and macs have the same processors (x86). (interestingly all the current consoles and the gamecube use the old mac processors (power PC))

Having x86 architecture isn't enough - each chip, from brand to brand and model to model, could have differences in how it handles floating-point numbers.

That's pretty good but I'd say Sluthman's or however you spell it one is way better.

Thats why "ipecac" is in his name he is!!
