i am also suitably impressed. Nice combination of the car and balancing stick techniques.

NICE! I tried to work that out somehow for an hour. Couldn't get my "pole-vault to victory" solution to work and gave up on it.

I claim everybody has been ignoring Big Ball. It has a unique problem that seems to be able to be solved in a number of ways plus a fair amount of building room. Start working on your over-the-top-complicated and low piece number solutions!

Yus.

Except you are not playing big ball.

You are playing On a roll.

And i cannot see how 2 pieces beat one, lethal.

Wow. Sorry, I didn't realize that nearly a full page had been posted. So I saw yours, and figured it was the one you posted last page.

I was just poking fun. I experimented for a while with that ball idea, and figured that the stick alone could do the job too.

I did try it a bit, too. But couldn't make it work. Then on my first try I managed it as it was. No readjusting.

Also, I came up with a new version of Big Ball. http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=1030433

Edit: And here is my simple Big Ball. 4 pieces, similar idea to my first solution.

Or without the attachment to the rectangle.

Nice Lethal. Also good work on that 1-piece Mars victory cheez. I tried to get that to work for a while and couldn't so resorted to the 2-piece version I posted earlier.

Here's the big ball I did in 4. Too late I see. http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=1064284

EDIT: hahaha. I just did this on accident. Awesome. http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=1064089

EDIT 2: YES! Big ball in 3! http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=1064396
