So it's like as hard as getting in the Simplest Badgecount Records?

Will you get credit for each of those solves, even though they are the same piece count?


No.
You get 4 points, 'cause that's the greatest number of badges with 1 piece
(unless someone else gets more badges with 1 one piece)

Oh ok so this is pretty much the highest:
:solved: :rodless: 1 piece
:solved: :rodless: :magless: - 2 piece
:solved: :rodless: :magless: :green: 3 piece
so on...

Yes, but that of course doesn't normally happen ...
I mean:
the number of badges doesn't normally start at 1 or 2,
the number of badges doesn't always increase by just 1
each time you increase the number of pieces
and the number of badges doesn't always reach 10.

You may see a lot of examples here.

hm,I did'nt know that,so I will have a lot less points that I was thinking .-.
so,if the level needs 10 pieces to solve(any solve)and someone makes 6 badges with 10 pieces nobody will win 2,3,4 or 5 points right?

right,

the idea is to get the maximum number of badges with the minimum number of pieces,
you're allowed to use more pieces only if you get more badges.

(we're not interested in minimizing the piece count for each given badge count)

I've submitted my contraptions. So, the answer to this question will clear things up for me: Is this statement true?

"You are allowed to submit solves with more badges ONLY IF the solve with more badges has a greater number of pieces as the solve with fewer badges." Example:
:solved: :magless: :handsoff: :green: 3 pieces
:solved: :magless: :handsoff: 5 pieces
Is this a valid submission? My last question.
