Yes, sure, let's have more!

[Monique]

[abextra]

maybe after a little break... let's have a vote on it

I like battleships!

[Semih_Sayginer]

yeah battleships please SF (snookerships SF )

[snookersfun]

ok, on that vote of confidence, here is one for the weekend:

R.233 snooker ball arrays

very much like R227, you have this 10x12 grid (units of snooker ball width), green baize, and should arrange on it an initially unknown number of rectangular arrangements of snooker balls (reds?) (minimum width and height 2x2). Again no touching of those regions.

Some clues (but not all) appear at the sides of the grid as to how many balls in total lie on each such line.

and yes, Robert, the pics can come up. Thanks!! Congratulations

R231 and 232 update

So far, only Monique is in line for any free bananas or plums!

I'm not sure whether anyone will be able to beat her 6 plums, but surely someone can claim more than her 12 bananas?

morning's news flash:
First answer in to R 233 by Monique again, congratulations

[snookersfun]

So far, only Monique is in line for any free bananas or plums!

I'm not sure whether anyone will be able to beat her 6 plums, but surely someone can claim more than her 12 bananas?

I still seem to have a brain block
but what about 13 bananas and 11 plums?

[snookersfun]

forget the 11 plums of course, 6 are just fine

[Monique]

Yes 13 bananas for me also. Still 6 plums.

[davis_greatest]

Rounds 231 and 232

Feel free to post how you arrange the snooker balls to claim your bananas and plums

[snookersfun]

here's the easy one for the 13 bananas:

and a 6,5,4,3,2,1 triangle for the 6 plums

[Monique]

A 3x7 rectangle also yields 13 bananas.
The equilateral triangle with 6 balls on the sides gives 12 bananas and 6 plums.
