My memory does seem to be working pretty well these days. A nice change from the past.
I see -- how are you doing, anyway?

That does sound like fun. I'll have to remember that. My own personal idea was to see how far I could launch a tire. (Hopefully getting it to land upright and roll some ways.)
Just don't point it towards anything you want to keep intact!
....so, how hard is it to build a catapult? Because it occurs to me that that might be an ideal solution to my problems with launching. It'd be cool to get something flying without having to first climb a cliff.
Not that hard, really. You just need to get the right balance with the launch mechanism. I had to rework mine a bit when it ended up going off at too light a touch. Once that's settled, though, it would probably be near-perfect for your launching needs.
Of course! Let me just figure out if I can put it on wheels to bring to the Nexus, or if I'll have to bring you here. I'll let you know one way or the other.
Attaching wheels was a success -- if you want to see it, I'm in the Nexus, near the sign (http://community.livejournal.com/dear_multiverse/5124644.html). Just look for the bright orange cones.

((OOC: *headpalm* Right, wasn't thinking. Sorry!))
