EXPIRED
You can still submit your time. But you won't recieve the 4 points as it is not the current challenge anymore.

Challenge maps:
Scheme File(s): scheme Tower of Failures

Description:
Welcome to one of the most elaborate and imaginative maps ever made for W:A. Tower of failures is a behemoth of a map with many unique technical parts and plenty of well designed sections for fast roping. It took the creator DonMega one year to create the map so I have set an expiration of one year for this challenge.

Rules:
Use the attached scheme file and use 3 worms. Parachute trick (descending from edge and climbing) is allowed. You can surrender when you want and still submit your time, but with a time penalty for not finishing. Shortcuts are allowed. The illustrations on the map that show how to do some sections are suggestions only, you can do them how you want. Touch the green floor in the podium section to finish.


Map zones (not important, just for clarification):
Spoiler! View

I have split the map into 9 zones
The map zones are as follows:
Red    1
Green  2
Cyan   3
Purple 4
Yellow 5
Pink   6
Blue   7
Black  8
White  9


Not reaching the finish does not come at no cost. The penalty for surrendering, turn ending or losing all your worms before finishing is determined like this: (10 - zone number) * 10,000 seconds.
An example of a run where someone got to the end of zone 1 in 200 seconds: (200 + [10 - 1] * 10,000) seconds = 90,200 seconds. If you are unsure submit your time and I will add the penalties if there are any.

Difficulty increasing modifications (optional):
Spoiler! View
If difficulty additions are used the time is multiplied with the corresponding values from the list below.
The result is rounded down to the nearest frame.
Assuming a completion time of 30 min:
Ldet off:           0.950x  90s
Anti-sink off:      0.975x  45s
1 worm:             0.975x  45s
No parachute trick: 0.950x  90s
0 parachute ammo:   0.975x  45s
1 ninja rope ammo:  0.750x 450s

if we would be extra strict about rules and such, technically in vesuvio's run the 6th computer hasn't been destroyed completely, at 1:28 ;) :D he destroyed the middle+right part of the PC, there's quite a few left on the left side ::)

Yeah. Also vesuvio's time is 111.10 (time of boarding the ship).

As for the computers, I followed the rule of a thumb of throwing the dynamite always between 2 pillars (not on the pillar). I would feel bad for leaving a piece of keyboard or screen of my target.

vesuvio dynamite must be placed between two pillars, you have a part of the PC left, which means that enemies can recover data from hard drives :0 try again

new time 90.56

However, my worm was a bit unlucky with the top computer, and I ended up putting a dynamite slightly on pillar. If my run will be invalid, it's 100% fine :) I will do better next time. (300 attempts later)

There are many ways and many possibilities to do this map, I have a mix feeling of being surprised AND disappointed that only Zalo + me did it so far :D It's a chally where it's not a simple TTRR thing of going from start to finish straight forward, you can really do this a dozen different ways :) This makes this chally a whole different and unique from most of the others that we have here.. but oh well :D

I am super happy with how every dynamite successfully landed directly on the computer. Those were some of the most precise Jetpack turnings that I am capable of doing at full speed :D It would be very unhealthy to play this challenge more after 1896 attempts that I have from it.

I loved that zooka shot in Boodle2003's run at 370 sec :D This happens very often when you wanna open the wall and you manage to shoot thru a 2-3 pixel gap, which you would never get a shot at other times if you shoot it on purpose x$
