The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

[kress]

Thought I might share a build I'm working on this year with an end date planned for August 2014-

I have been a HHGttG fan all my adult life so I hope I can do justice to this fantastic theme.
Any suggestions as far as characters or Modes are concerned are very welcome.
I shall post regular updates to the above link until the completion date in August....cheers

This is coming to you from Australia - unfortunately I cant link up to the Aussie Site for some reason.

A Link to MARVIN

Nice.

The characters are obvious. Probably 6 that would be a must.

There is a lot you can do with modes. The resources you collect and digitize would probably drive (are driven by) that aspect

Don't Forget To Bring A Towel...

D O N''T P A N I C

WOW>>>This is freaking great. I can hardly believe my eyes. The "Marvin" speech, Is "A Brain The Size Of A Planet" in there? I would like to see the Earth-computer concept and something that counts up to the answer "42" ( For Special?). The references to needing a towel always struck me. A bit off topic but 'Towelie' says "Don't Forget To Bring A Towel"...C_S

Don't Panic You Got Your Towel

the towel is for hiding so if you can't see them in theory they
(the Vogons) also can't see you!
I am all for a yarn stage (hyperspace)
I loved the series and all its books!!
the movie did the book some justice at least it didn't trash it
the way some books try to make it to the movies only to get lost in the transition
So long and thanks for all the fish - Hitchhiker's Guide (HD) - YouTube

Nice start to the table there.


And sorry to be the correction guy but:

the towel is for hiding so if you can't see them in theory they
(the Vogons) also can't see you!

It was the ravenous bugblatter beast of traal that you use the towel to hide from, a beast so stupid it thinks if you can't see it, it can't see you...

It's only now as I revisit this theme in depth I realize all of the misquoting I have been doing over the years.

Marvin Multiball

Just a quick update

Knock down target ( which resets in 5 seconds )
and lock ball in kickout hole behind X 4

done with a helping hand returning the ball to the flipper ( it's not this easy )
