I hate these things! Santa keeps crashing.

ETA: Okay, I figured it out and threw Santa 203.0. I also emailed it to DH, thinking that he would do our family more honour than I possibly can.

The yodelling is pretty catchy, too.

thndrkttn -edited to add I just tossed Jolly old Saint Nick 329.10!

Don't be surprised when you get coal in your stocking.

Buggy- has no Santa flinging skills at all

Posted by thndrkttn on 12-23-03 at 10:14 AM
I 'should' get coal in my stocking. When my brothers and I were younger, I didn't get along so well with my middle brother. Ya know, he was the 'Golden Child', could do no wrong, sibling rivalry, brak, brak, brak.

I decided one year when Chris was about 7, to go out to the garage and get a bunch of charcoal brickets. I wrapped them up and put them in his stocking when my mother wasn't looking. He actually cried and I was thrilled. Horrible, I know

thndrkttn - now gets along extremely well with the "Golden Child" turned Marine pilot and is very proud of him.

334.3 too!!!

Now I have to see what happens when/if you get PAST Rudolph!



"RE: Slingshot Santa"
Posted by thndrkttn on 12-23-03 at 11:15 AM

I have gotten the 334.3 three times in a row and land about an inch behind Rudolph's back hoof. Maybe you can't get past Rudolph? JV is the King of Santa Flinging as he reached it first!

Well, consider me one of JV's flinging minions then, because I just got 334.3 too.

Will someone please help me out? All I can manage to do it slam Santa into the ground, cept for the one time I just kinda dropped him off the end of the cliff.


"RE: Slingshot Santa"
Posted by Esbea on 12-23-03 at 11:31 AM
click on them once to get them running, click (and hold)again to pull the catapault back and let go to release! Let go as soon as you see the cliff!

I can barely get the guy out of the slingshot. Maybe it's a christian skill?

I can guarantee it's not a Christian skill.
