What would Xmas and the internet be if it weren't for stupid flash games?

I can't believe people would waste their time on this childish nonsense! The 45 Mins I spent throwing Santa didn't accomplish anything . . . except breaking 275 feet! :teeth:

Thanks for the link :(

Well I didn't waste no 45 mins only about 3 mins. My best in 5 throws was 255.6m.
I guess if I spend the 45mins I could get upto 275 but it ain't worth it.

Since I don't believe in Santa, I'm not going to fall prey to this trickery. Of course if I get what I want for Christmas this year, I may just become a believer!

How does it work? All I've figured out so far is clicking the mouse starts the elves running. Clicking again releases the catapult at which point Santa lands at the base of the catapult with a distance of 0.0. If you let them run to the cliff face before clicking a second time, the results are the same. If you let them run off the cliff, Santa is tossed high into the air then the catapult falls down the cliff followed by the elves and finally by Santa. Distance = 0.0.

Michelle, your 200m is 200m farther than I've managed so far.

Walter, clicking once starts the catpult moving, next click and hold the mouse button. The catapult arm will swing down and when the button is released the catapult will fire. At about 8 oclock the tension in the arm is to much and that fails that attempt (some animation of the arm breaking and decapatating the elves would be nice). Obviously the further the arm is pulled back the further the shot, and the closer to the edge the swing is started the further the shot.

Highest shot so far after 8 or so throws - 297.5

Woohoo 332.1!!! Im assuming it doesnt matter where on the screen the mouse pointer is positioned?
