@D0m0nik : u beat the Cheater!

D0m0nik · February 07, 2024, 11:10:25 AM

I know Dude 2 was a cheat, is Dude the same person? Lousy time if they are cheating! dkwkrp is whooping us all on these big maps though, amazing time.

I played this twice, first time started bottom left. Second time started centre bottom and would've had a 29min score but missed a spore and walked off for a cup of tea! Still 5 mins off the pace though.

Where did you start Alex, your time is excellent! Tempted to go for a third run but really not sure if I will fare any better.

I was able to improve my time a little. I started in the north in the middle.
Tried three starting points and this seems the quickest.
I think you can manage a time under 22 minutes. I almost managed a time under 29 minutes but then I deleted my Forge...

D0m0nik · February 07, 2024, 02:37:59 PM

I can't even see a starting point in the North! Can you attach a screen shot or two?

rennervate · February 07, 2024, 04:36:11 PM

no problem

Alex and Domonik, that was a great discussion. I had given up on this map trying to start in the bottom center. Never saw what Alex did as possible. Great map.

D0m0nik · February 08, 2024, 03:33:18 AM

That is impressive!

Hawgwash, bottom left or bottom right, just below the totem/pyramid thing is easier but probably the slowest!
For centre bottom you need sprayers and mortors placed to hit the deep creep but not pop the bugs!

With the top method I'm 10 mins in and just got the berthas, haven't set foot on the main land to the south of the 3 islands. I think centre bottom is fastest with a large guppy onslaught of the far north!

Edit - tried both and your method by far the fastest!

Wouldn't have got there without your screenshots. This was a lot of fun, thank you!

Wonderful map as always. You absence was deeply noticed. I hope you do not mind me asking, but I submitted a map the other day, but it was removed from the list and I do not know why. Sorry to bother you with this question, but I don`t know who else to ask this question.

@Gotright Your map was reported and removed by out auto-moderation system. The reasons don't seem valid, so I have restored it with some protection against removal. Such instances of spurious removal are rare.

You can always ask a question or email support@knucklecracker.com if you need such questions answered. THe rightful place for these questions are not on the thread of another map.

@Karsten75 Thank you very much. I will do so next time. I`m not the sharpest tool in the shed sometimes, so I never thought of that. Thank you so much for the reply and restoration.
