How aboutusing them to run mechanisms in the background to raise a door or similar too?

Ooh! And I see sponges! Annoying sponges that slow things down, but yet helpful sponges that store things up until you can find a way to compress them...
How about Teddy Bears that soak up the fluid?

I'm seeing episodes of a certain 70's outdoor mad game show (It's a Knockout) in oversized costumes with liquid vats filled by people running abck and forth - looses like we will have similar scenes but with people and N900's! LOL.

I see window wipers (the ones that are on cars) that need to be passed before they get the water drop.

That was certainly the image I had at the end of the game - one of those containers full of coloured water and Stuart Hall measuring how many bucketfuls you'd successfully carried.

Can't help you with garage Texrat - it confuses me more than Brainstorm and scares me more than Bugzilla. I think Maesheep only got an account at the point when it was needed to upload to devel, anyway.

No idea! But it's in devel, so must have a garage entry. Ask Hopbeat.

Sorry about going off topic a bit but could we work something in like this as it links liquid (The Game) and penguins (Tux) and the mad game show?!

It's a knockout Penguins

What about having different colors of liquid?

2 Entrances, one red, one yellow. 2 Exits. The tubes crosses. You have to handle everything in the right order. DON'T MIX IT! Or the color will change and the Liquid can't pass the exit.

In higher level: You have 2 Liquids. one blue, one yellow. And a green exit. Mix it to pass the exit with the liquid!

Next step: You have 2 Liquids. one blue, one yellow. And 3 exits. Blue, yellow and green. You have to put a plenty of water to each exit. Don't forget one exit. Or you can't reach the next level.

The Story could handle about a new Bar Mixer machine or a chemical factory. (and you're the overworked employee in the night shift)

Edit: I changed the yellow into orange in the text colors otherwise nobody could read it!
