I just hope these "batches" aren't anything like the Gold or CE batches, with months (years?) in between and no status updates.
but I'm not holding my breath...

What do you think about how to map the r2's? I think they will be much more difficult to map. :?

mmmm. mapping! I think I'll struggle. I work on the relative principle and map out from the start. And then try and line things up. Circles are gonna be a lot tougher for me!.

I'm working on an animated routing map - programming it in VB6 (old school).

I have noticed, however, that while the absolute positioning will be important, understanding the variability in the topological (node / vector) relationships may be kicker.

Also keep in mind the maze could be substantially longer. I'm wondering how many square inches the R2 will have for the playing surface.

Oh plop. I finally get enough money (bonus time) to join the series, and it closed two weeks ago. I only looked about a month ago and there were 20+ left too - must have had a massive surge.

Gutted.
