I do understand that it doesnt work exactly that way, however i find this kind of "steady state analysis" helpful in determining strategies that would work for maps.  This allows you to get a feel for what you need if you want to TERPtle.  On larger maps you get to worry about the creeper latter. On this small of a map the amount of creeper not headed your way after a few minutes is not large allowing for a good estimate based on total creeper production.  I also do not see enough energy for any strategies even that would be a rush.

Sorry for the necropost, but I'm pretty stumped on this one.  I got the converter (barely) with collectors a guppy and a pulse cannon, but converting doesn't give me enough time to build a nullifier.  All I can figure to do now is wait for the creeper to top-out at 126 deep across the whole map, convert a corner and hope for the best.  I'm not terribly optimistic.

FWIW, I recall an earlier thread where it was agreed by several excellent players that Jovencoting was impossible. That has been a while back though, like not long after CW3 was released. I see this thread started around that time but there were different comments & user names as I recall. Guess I'm not much help. lol

Also, I don't know if there is more than one Jovencoting. I've seen duplicate map names here & there.

EDIT: Also FWIW, there is a thread on page 3 started by "Someone" that lists the impossible maps. I don't know how to post the link to it, but maybe you can find it.
