High Score Competition #112 Block Hole
mimic:
I finally kind of figured out a method, how to progress past 1/7-2/0 if I only had a few more days, maybe I'd stand a chance to Comtek. Basically I had to stop enlarging around let's say 1/4 and focus on quickly eliminating, but not one by one. If there were clusters of 1 L horizontal, 1 U and 1 vertical, best was to destroy them was to shoot 4 (u don't have to count as that is a max at one time) to destroy vertical and then enlarge with 2+2+2 that gives me more time to maneuver and it's faster than trying to destroy each horizontal L with single line + I noticed a lot of those from edge to edge flat ones were overlapping with horizontal L's and short T's so if I looked carefully then I could add just 2, 3 and eliminate a row of lets say 8 at a time instead of 3 individual ones.
Unfortunately greed got to me again and I screwed up at the flashing-destroy all one and enlarged it too much, yoikes!
I think it's safe to say Comtek won. I thought kixfan would do better, I guess not!

Wish I had more time to try more for this one, but will definitely keep it in my favs!

Whoops, didn't realize that I'd failed to provide proof. I figured I'd play the game more, then I found that I didn't want to play it more, so the picture never left my phone.
Here's my after-the-fact proof to retain my glorious 6th place honors, so that kixfan doesn't steal my limelight.
Thanks,
