Improvised 20 winners announced! 03:00 25/03/2010, Goli Mohammadi, contest, MAKE: Blog


MAKE Volume 20 winners homemade Challenge have been announced. Here the challenge is how to read, if not the following:

The scenario: You belong to a group of fans, but dedicated to "urban archaeologists" who have made it their mission to document the details of flight in the history of their city. You can tell when driving one night, a classical building, the group has often admired is fenced and earmarked for demolition. You decide that a quick entry and exit - some notes and some photographs - will serve its mission well.

Parking out of sight, ignoring the "signs" No Trespassing, loading your stuff into the pockets of the jacket minimal and easily scale the fence to enter the building. Guided by the LED flashlight small, but powerful, who traveled to the creaking wooden stairs, taking pictures all the time with a compact digital camera.

The challenge: When crossing one of the top suddenly crash through the floor and some tables are well fitted into the hole to the armpits. Moreover, the decline has forced the edges of the chipped tables broken down along his body. Thus, while the arms and shoulders look good, if you try to educate, Act together like a giant evil Chinese finger puzzle and only dig deeper, wedge.

You do not know how far the fall is less than you, and the hole is so narrow that it is doubtful that you could get through the shoulders anyway. Hanging there all night with the hope that the demolition team can find in the morning could be an option - except that the rats probably could seriously affect mass below. So you're the intrepid archaeologist, what will come of this?

What You've Got: You have a flashlight and camera, which are within reach. It also has a working cell phone and a swiss army knife (or Leatherman tool) - but two are in their pockets, which are below the hole. And, it's just your imagination, or is that the rat in the corner made you smile?

Here are all winners and their solutions:
