GARVASE DAY!

Ok so I googled "on screen protractor" without quotes and the two least shifty results are a sourceforge project with one five star vote (:rolleyes:) and something that wants to charge thirty loving dollars. :laffo: So much for the random angle idea. :rip:

random.org and a little eyeballing is too much work, eh?

Covski specifically vetoed the idea for the obstacle of getting a protractor on screen, ask him. :shrug:

Hey now, I absolutely could half-rear end it by guesstimating the angle or using a physical protractor, but I wanna do this right and visually impressive since you guys seem to like the idea so much! :)

Try to hit it all the way up the ramp on the right so it rolls down and causes chaos.

this is a hilarious dog thank you



I hope this was sufficently chaotic!



Four amazing turns of super guide to go! Next shot will be decided by the poster that provides the best peggle-related proverb!

Also sorry about the slow update pace, work has been keeping me delightfully busy!

"Don't put all your pegs in one basket"

I'd like to try aiming for the top orange peg of what remains of the right-hand slide, and see if we can use Super Guide to rebound onto the purple peg.

With ten balls and only six orange pegs, this is looking pretty good.

I don't even want to see what happens if you gain CHIM outside of a pre-coded system.

"The best-laid plans often bounce off the wrong ******** peg and DAMNIT RIGHT INTO THE ONE EMPTY-"



Wipe out the left, threading the needle between the round orange then the blues to hit the orange block.

Although come to think of it, in case my suggestion can't be done, I'd be happy to bounce off any of those orange pegs on the right as long as it can be bounced into the purple peg from there.

A man and his Peggles are soon parted.

See if you can bounce it inside those two horizontal rows on the left to bounce around for fun and profit.

The right to bear arms
Give a man a game, he'll enjoy himself for a day.
Teach a man to Peggle and he'll rack up thousands of hours played on steam.

Hit only the top left round peg.

Sorry again about the lack of updates, now both work and Nanowrimo are kicking my rear end :)

Too true :smith:



(I was going to try to get it in the bucket, but I felt that it would be against the spirit of the suggestion :colbert:)

This was a bad shot, let's take another one.

This was also a hard shot, proving the proverb to be entirely correct :( The best laid plans of pegs and men horribly mutated beasts, and all that!



Next shot will be decided by whoever posts the picture of the best hat.
