Making Saturn exact

Did it take you guys a lot of tries to make Saturn the right size(s)? My first run on the small one was 20 cm 1 mm (blah- so close). My first medium run was 2 m 30 cm, and I haven't run large yet. I'm sure I'll go back and try them a bunch to get them right.

way too silly :S

It took me a lot of tries. I think at first I was finishing way too small in all three.

I liked to use reference items that you would be able to roll up if you got close to the goal. Like, I think in small, I used fish bones, in medium, the chef, and in large the fire kanji (which wasn't a very good reference at all, but I didn't know what else I could use). Whenever I was able to roll those up, I would charge into walls and knock the excess crap off until I couldn't roll up the reference items anymore, cause all of them were slightly over the goal. Not a very good method, but it worked for me. I had a lot more difficulty with large than any of the others.

I used to take a bathtub crayon and draw the outline of the desired size, it kinda worked and it kinda didn't :lol

It's been awhile since I did these, but my reference for small was the toy trains. I'd pick up two(?) of them, then a few pingpong balls from the corner near there (shuriken work as well). Basically, once you can pick up the train(s), you're within 1cm of the goal, and the pingpong balls add 1mm each and the shuriken add 1-2mm each. For medium, I used the desks, and got lucky. For large, there are a few buildings that you pick up at ~48m in the NYC area (I think).

Somewhere along the lines of the bathtub crayon, I used four strips of masking tape directly on the screen (upper, lower, and side edges). It got me to perfect sizes pretty quickly, once I remembered not to pick up anything long or really oddly shaped. :smirk

I think it's easier if you have a larger TV, though.

For the Saturn Medium, roll until you are able to pick up the three lockers in the bathroom. Roll up all three, then roll up three urinals.

The fire kanji is ~50m tall in large. If you roll it up, I think that's abour 54m. I just try to compare sizes with it.
For small, I just electric taped my tv.
Medium I used the bathroom items as a reference.

I always do a few trial runs to see how big a certain size is. Then I just try it until I get it. You don't have to be 100% exact on this (they round a little). I managed to get 21 cm on the first one this morning and I haven't done it in forever :dipp :woot
