nice job man, i've tried numerous time to solve that damn dance, i created a copy of it and solved the whole lower section (i've shifted pets with walls to make it easy to understand), but i've never had a chance to look properly the northern wiring.
the upper dog kept opening the door every time and i've never got a grasp on it's mechanic.
@joshwithguitar will you release the map now?

@cullman, you have to fix the registration, the forum has now 7,200 post, and it's all spam

can't wait for the site to be online.
Have you decided about the ability to rotate voltage triggers?

First design of the new house is ready...
Due to the binary clock and alternating trap door/electric floor, you cannot use tools unless from the doormat. However, if you use a tool at the doormat, my security system will detect it and initiate lockdown! This does kind of steal an idea from JWG's map and then I incorporate some more clever electronics into it to detect if the player has used a ladder on the first move.
Did Jason have this in mind when he created the game?
probably not, but it's obviously a good solution against well funded robbers.
nice design, i'm inside right now, and i wonder... how do you detect the usage of the first ladder?

Thanks

i remember doing that before, and i've reached the pit safely, so... maybe you did it because of me in the first place 
#32 Re: Main Forum » Henson Robbed!!! » 2015-08-04 14:31:27
Was it Younts that you robber? He was climbing the ranks but has vanished, I was interested to see how far it would get with it being his first proper house
yes, i reached the vault on my 2nd run, his wife was alive when i've left the place.
i'm so pissed off that i've wasted the money without getting any info

#34 Re: Main Forum » Henson Robbed!!! » 2015-08-03 17:27:32
seems like i've almost solved the circuit, i can now safely reach the chihuahua.
now to solve it completely i have to understand how the upper part does work
#35 Re: Main Forum » Henson Robbed!!! » 2015-08-02 20:02:46
doesn't matters if there's just 2-3 players playing... this game will always keep amazing me...
kudos @Jason for designing the most intelligent and challenging game i've ever played in my life (and god knows i've played lots of games )

Read up on these forums... there is a lot of arcane trickery that most people would never figure out on their own!
yep, there's a lot of wisdom around the forum
#37 Re: Main Forum » Henson Robbed!!! » 2015-08-01 15:30:01
nice job man, very nice job. i thought that would have last forever without proper founds
great design with the clock, you've managed to keep it compact and functional. The only problem as you've pointed out is the fact that a single suicide run is needed in order to known the exact vault location, and that means a lot in this game.
now i demand Hanson design. Is JWG willing to share it, since it has been mapped out? i've got the whole front + lower circuit, and i'm curious about the rest
#38 Re: Main Forum » Chang's place » 2015-07-28 15:50:39
Really nice place mala. I always feel a little unimaginative when I see others peopkes maps, as mine are pretty simplistic and normally stolen lol.
thanks, i have the same problem when looking at the blank room.
the great thing about sharing design is that you can always thinker them into something new.
lots of my traps are reinterpretation of older schemes.
right now i'm completely out of ideas, i'd like to build the next house around a single concept, like i did for the luna park, but in the end i cannot find a right balance among: funny puzzle - hard to bruteforce - misleading design.
as JWG proved one more time, there's nothing you can do against a careful and wealthy robber. He had the equipment and the patience to break into every possible location without committing himself or taking unnecessary risks.

You know, I was thinking about following the first cat from the start.
To think of all the money I could have saved if I'd just done that...
it wasn't there in the first place, since you were all scouting north, i moved the vault south (after the last dog/pit).
since you had mapped the northern path i moved it to the cat location.
expecting you to check the cat after that, i was ready to move the vault north east, replacing the panic button in the little cat cage, i thought it was stupid enough to maybe trick you one more time, but you've been faster.
waiting for your design to be released

Here we go, another house went down,
i don't plan on using it anymore, so here's the screens before and after JWG visit (such a nice guest to invite home:D)
#42 Re: Main Forum » You lot still alive? » 2015-07-28 07:45:35
Didn't take too many chances the second time.
well done, i had another nice hiding place, but i thought i had more time before using it.
see you on the next project
#43 Re: Main Forum » You lot still alive? » 2015-07-28 05:34:55
when I have to buy a ladder I'm always tempted to bring a whole bunch.
i know
funny fact you all went north, i thought you'd have started from the lower section (since for the first part is copypasted from my previous house), but just 3 out of 100 robbers tried it.
I wonder what's encouraging people to go straight up without even thinking about it.
#44 Re: Main Forum » You lot still alive? » 2015-07-27 08:19:01
i suspect that Vogt is GotABigTrap trying to get funds to bash my house
#45 Re: Main Forum » You lot still alive? » 2015-07-27 07:56:59
No, Henson took a stab at Moore's
did you robbed him?
#46 Re: Main Forum » You lot still alive? » 2015-07-27 05:37:33
did Moore took another stab at Henson's place?
he's now down to 6k
#47 Re: Main Forum » You lot still alive? » 2015-07-27 04:44:00
A whole lot seems to have entered to system overnight.
yep, there are a couple of new houses on the list, and one of them is already storing 7.5k.

when i saw the number i had no idea how you didn't get to the vault.
funny fact you've actually killed the dog on the 3rd attempt, i've turned visibility on, just to check that
#49 Re: Main Forum » You lot still alive? » 2015-07-26 14:47:05
Anybody on the other community server? Seems to be a lot of houses on it.
no, i haven't had time to play, but i will take a look
