The ninth event of Marble League 2022 was held on the 23rd November 2022, featuring the ninth event, Block Pushing.
Event[]
The official Block Pushing pictogram for Marble League 2022, designed by JMR.
In the Block Pushing event, teams of 4 marbles descend down a ramp before colliding with a block. The objective of the event is to shove the block as far as possible down the team's lane, without dislodging the block or a marble out of the lane.
4 teams run simultaneously, with each team receiving exactly 1 push in all lanes. After 4 pushes, every team's score is calculated by summing their 2 furthest pushes. The team with the highest score wins. All measures are rounded to the nearest 1/20 cm, or 5 mm.
