    ...and the clouds parted

    ...an unexpected bright spot to my morning. got BD to fall in 10min. Finally!!



    Bill, my suspicion is that if you setup the shot as Steve allegedly/probably did, you notice its arm 'dislocating' and reaching through that gap towards the target. This reach occurs in a sort of ebb n flow fashion, sometimes extending well past the feet, through the balls, and sometimes coming back to its body. My theory is that with an extreme amount of luck, the balls will shift, trapping that arm during its furthestmost reach... creating the right distance to make the connection. When viewing my closest 'wait attempts', it has not managed to trap that arm. I have been pixels away with a leg too many times to count. grrr. think you just gotta rack up the resets!

    Congratulations! Another 239'er. I hope to be at 240 over the weekend. I'm alternating Quint, with WD and SoF. I swear Totter must be possible. The head goes most of the way through. If you shoot once left and once right it goes through on the right but the board is tilting towards the shot. I've been shooting and resetting so many times I'm starting to think it won't work. It should. Maybe on the reset they will be so kind as to make the board thinner.

    SOF Rant --

    When it fell -- it was max 15 minutes -- probably closer to 10ish.

    I wish someone else would get this damn thing -- and this time take shots!

    Wd 16

    So -- seems we have 2 "impossible" shots -- SO 1 / WD 16 .. I've been playing with WD 16 .. but I haven't been any closer to that either... probably as aggravating as those trying SO 1 (or BD 1 for that matter, which now has 4 total people).

    Quite the game --

    I actually don't think the time is that significant. Virtually the same setup can range from 5min to 90min to conclude. So I would be happy to oblige, Steve, and take this damn thing down... but, I think knowing doll & ring position would be most helpful. Post up, or pm me, if you please :)

    239 club!

    I got the magic ramp and got a 17 in WD last night. I saw the magic rampfor the first time a few days ago but fired too late to clear the gap. This time I was ready for it. Then I got fired up and hammered away on Quint for a couple of hours and late last night got it too. I had gotten the ice block to move faster than usual before but the ramp was always tilted a little wrong. This time the block slid like a rocket and it didn't matter.

    Damn, Bill! I can't seem to hold my spot on the leaderboard for more than a few days. Nice work indeed. It's okay, I'm sort of used to getting pushed down or off the room boards & main board since I started. It seems they're organized by the join date to Plus+... since I joined at the end of May, I've always wound up at the bottom. I think it just motivates me to work harder. So, Big Props to all you Senior players out there! :p

    Congratulations Sage!

    Did you just get SoF in 8? I've been hammering away at that stalk for a few days. The stalk fell in 7 once and it was the wrong way. I've decided if it falls again the wrong way or I end up missing the shot I'll NEVER play that level again. Even if it was for number one in the world.

    Suggestion for Future Update

    I want a "step and repeat" function for Ragdoll Blaster. For instance, I want to be able to set it so it will shoot at a particular spot, wait one minute (or specified time), then reset and do the process over again. That way for Space Oddity I could do the first shot, then go to bed and hopefully wake up and have a one.

    It would be great for Jail Guard, BD and several others.

    238 & another SO encounter...

    Yes, I finished out the known steel room the other day. And, later that day I achieved my dream setup on SO... or so I thought. I finally, and randomly, managed to pop the target completely out of the ring structure... interestingly, with the doll still centered on the outside of it. I thought it would give me 50/50 odds at a touch, which is probably as good as it gets... but, alas, it wound up being an endless wait, again, which I terminated in the 40th hour. If only the doll would have slid a fraction up, think I would've had it.

    ...reset, fire, wait, repeat ;-)

    Hey guys,

    New to the thread, but have read all 300 pages trying to garner clues to these levels. I couldn't agree with Bill more. I've shot over 5000 shots on JG at the spot X posted and still am having no luck. A repeat function would save us all from carpal tunnel and dry eyes.

    Mad props to you guys for figuring out some of these levels. I know it has been a while for some of you, but I still couldn't believe Rolly was achievable in one until I read it and finally got it. My wife is still making fun of me for playing that level on her iPhone, my iPhone, and our iPad at the same time. May have to do the same for SO.

    Anyone have a screen shot for Turnabout? X explained the strategy, but I still can't seem to find the sweet spot get it done in one shot.

    Nice to see you here iDoctor.


    Some nice crossover happening from Ragdoll Cannon to Ragdoll Blaster 2 and vice versa.

    Don't forget Ragdoll Blaster (1) as well - another fantastic game.


    All those levels where a long time ago, let me open up the game and see if I can help

    Cant believe I forgot Turnabout


    I dont know what to say - I'm in a cold sweat


    This is easily the level I have the most screenshots of, probably 15 or so and all different situations.

    I don;t have one of the actual shot - sorry. Keep searching its out there, and believe me you could easily spend much more time on it than you will.

    Any others doing your head in?


    What's your current score?


    Oh and 5000 is nothing - really!

    Just you wait and see, and on the levels that you know what to do - can you even imagine what the trailblazers like X went through :eek:



    You will love the game.

    How many more dolls will fall?

    Thanks Vayduh. Bill graciously sent me the screenshot. I've fired about 500 shots at the spot already! Maybe another 500 or so to go before fireworks. RB1 got me hooked. Got all except Mind the Gap and The Gate. Maybe I'll revisit it after I lose my mind from RB2. Must say that Ragdoll Cannon and Roly Poly Cannon just do not have the same appeal for me as RB1 and RB2.

    I wonder how many more dolls will fall in RB2. Any votes?
