I got close, but didn't get the banana. :)

If that's slang, I don't know what it means.
If you mean the banana-shaped rock,
Spoiler
you can rush it.

Virgil and I were having a friendly challenge. My first post, which I amended was "Close, but no banana. (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=close%2C%20but%20no%20bananas)" Then later, I "got the banana." :)
Incidentally, your AC emitting units can be "broken" if too many (and not nearly all the Towers I have in this screenshot) fire at them simultaneously. :)

Thank you for the link.
I'm absolutely flattered that you and Virgil had a challenge in my map. ;D
The "too many beams" thing I noticed in my test world, but I thought it would be too impractical to get that many. You(and/or Virgil) have proven me wrong so I updated my script in the coder's corner (http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=16234.0) so that it doesn't anymore. :)
I knew a sub 10 minute time was possible.... ;)
Now I'm fairly confident that 9 to 9.5 minutes should be possible.

Wow, congratulations and huge kudos. ;)
I tried speed-running it myself and got 19:37.4

I got the attached position in 6:23, but took 13 mins to get to that inhibitor... any tips?
For starters, where is your 3rd CN? And you should take out the emitter on the left in the first 2 minutes. :)

My 3rd CN was back in orbit almost ready to be deployed on the right to lessen packet time.
I didn't give the left one priority, seeing as the inhibitor is insta-win.
I'll try some different stratergies next time(like reactor instead of beam in banana island PZ).
I'll take a few screenshots on my next attempt to unseat Virgil. :)
Ahhh.... I was totally wrong about that 9 to 9.5 minute thing. Turns out sub 9 is possible ;)

I agree. But a massive well done anyway. ;)
Good luck to both(or more) of you.
Anyone up for sniper-powered units? (half-serious face) :)
I thought I posted a link to the screenshot gallery, but must have forgotten. This is an attempt (not my latest that got sub-10 minutes) but still
Gallery is in reverse order, so start at the bottom and scroll up.

Tried the link but doesn't load me. Do you have another link I can try?
