Cover the Red Spot

Oh man, will someone please post a solution to this? It is killing me.

Here’s one of the solutions:

Even using that, though, I can still only get 99.98%. I don’t know if there’s an actual trick to it, or if you just need really good spatial abilities.

AAAARGH!
99.99%

i be though if it were a cut out thing, then i could actually beat it.

Here’s a 100% solution: redspot.jpg.

The Real Hustle – Fairground Scams: Cover The Spot

Best was 99.99% with 2 left at 8 secs. Played for an hour

Finished it %100 in about 10 minutes.

I overlaid the red dot in ps so you could see where the gray dots were in relation to the red dot (something I think was lacking in the previous %100 picture).

*Hint: the white edge of the gray dots counts as cover and is needed for a %100 total.

My Strategy:
1.)place the dot at the top in the middle so that as much of the width of the circle covers the edge
2 & 3.) place these two on either side of the first dot, overlapping them slightly, trying to cover more dot edge length but still try to cover enough of the middle that it would work.
4.) I tried to cover the middle and one side leaving just enough room for the last dot
5.) Covered the last length of edge and remaining middle.

100%!!!!!
Yey
but slow time
practices for about 15-20 minutes, but because I had to figure out how to make sure my hand moves the grey circle exactly where I want it (really hard on laptops< plus that grey circle is hard to move after you accidentally let go)
