    I have decided to pose a challenge to the PT community. What is this challenge you ask? Well I guess I will have to tell you now won't I.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE (August 8th, 2010): I have modified the template to fix an exploit that allows the bomb to have a constant pressure output so please DOWNLOAD THE NEW ONE and re-make your creations. Thank you.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    The Challenge: To make the biggest bomb possible in a preset location and size.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    How To Participate:

    1) Download the Bomberman Challenge I have put up.

    2) Make a bomb within the space currently filled with VOID & WAX attached to the test "button".

    3) You can also use any of the space on the farthest right empty area (you can remove the "TEST" text if need be) for any logic gates or triggers of any sort.

    4) Submit the link to your bomb in the comments of the Bomber Challenge file and I will go through them on Wednesday, August 11th and pick a winner.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    Rules:

    1) You can only use EXPLOSIVES and GASSES for the bomb itself. You can however add any type of wall or electronics to the far right hand side for any type of triggers or logic gates.

    2) You CAN modify the detonator (currently wall + water + detector) but it cannot add any pressure to the bomb in any way, shape, or form.

    3) Your bomb is measured by how much of the GOO it makes disappear when it is fired.

    4) Your bomb must be stable and triggered by a "button" of some sort. The bomb must also remain fully inside the confined space until fired.

    5) I will be measuring all bombs and results using Photoshop to make sure they are pixel perfect.

    6) Bombs will be tested THREE times each and the average will be used.

    7) These rules are subject to change up until Monday, August 9th.

    8) Judging will be done by myself only and will be solely based on performance of the bomb and nothing more.

    9) Your bomb can only be ignited by a single spark or firing mechanism and cannot fire more than once.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    Q&A

    If you have any questions please feel free to ask me and I will respond ASAP.

    bchandark:
    Are we allowed to delete the BMTL?

    Yes you can delete the BMTL & the WAX. I will add a rule that states the bomb must be stable and not leave the area until fired.

    Seirra-259:
    so no white hole?

    No. That would be too easy.

    the trick is to make the exploion one way. it already is, being haveing only one exit, but the bomb will have to try to explode one way whithout walls to contain it. if that is possible, then it might work.
