Goddammit Majid, I don't want to play if it takes 5 posts to even get what you intended to say. The scenario you want us to solve is not the same scenario that you posted originally. It's like playing a game with little kids who keep changing the rules. Sure it's cute, but eventually I'm going to steal their fucking ball.

The bluejay professor, knowing he was new at this rappelling thing, had the foresight to tell several of his lab minions about his expedition. He told them the location he would conduct this most exciting foray into the mating habits of the South American version of his beloved Cyanocitta cristata. "Now boys," he addressed his acne-bejeweled flunkies, "I'll be sure to call you just as soon as I get home." He paused and gave each of them a measured look before going on. "If I don't contact you by 9pm of that night, something has gone terribly wrong and you should contact the authorities. They'll know what to do." The professor, surveyed his seemingly hopeless position at rap anchor #6. His mouth was dried out from adrenaline-fueled panic and there was a stifled feeling in his chest like his heart would either stop beating or explode and he couldn't tell which. But then he calmed himself, suddenly remembering his sober instructions to his graduate students, Jules and Dan. He also recollected their devotion to the most menial of lab details. It would be allright. He folded his arms around himself as dusk settled in, waiting for the stab of rescuers' lights in the growing darkness above him. Dan and Jules quietly clinked their beers together at the local college bar while eyeing several choice members of the undergraduate populace who would never get how ornithologically brilliant the duo was. Dan looked down at his watch. "Oh shit, it's a quarter to twelve. Didn't the prof say something about calling the authorities?" Jules scoffed, "He's probably just hoarding his research for his next 'brilliant' paper. We never get to do anything. He always makes me clean the poo out of the cages. Fuck that guy." Yes, the professor is fucked. [This terrible attempt at fiction is brought to you by boredom. Do I get a dinner anyway?]

he could let one end of the rope go through the atc, and as he falls the other 100' reach out and grab the next set of chains, does that a couple of times and he won't have to jerk it a few trillion times.

Once again, I don't know if this is what you had in mind but it would work. Tie the end of the rope into the anchor (prolly just one bolt on the anchor if it's solid to save rope) and then directly below that end tied into the anchor tie a sheep shank. Hook up for the rap on the single rope and right before heading off, he cuts the one middle know which is doing nothing at all to hold the knot together. Once he reaches the next anchor, since he had the full length of rope, he clips in, gives the rope a couple of shakes so the sheep shank comes un-tied and he's got all but maybe two feet of the original length to do it again to the next anchor.

Cut a foot off of the end of his rope. Pull out a strand and tie one of the carabiners so that it stays open. tie a figure eight on a bight in one end of the rope. hook the open biner with the figure eight onto the rap rings at the station he's at. singe rope rap down to next anchor. flick the rope until it pops off the open biner and contine rapping down.

why does anything else in his stories happen? because he likes making up the most contrived (and it seems changing) scenarios while he is waiting for Google is searching for more accident reports.. this seems to slow down at night so the random shit speeds up touche.. i still stand by my other parts i like the FF2 idea tho.. full rope length whipper into the unknown

Couple of thoughts, but likely wouldn't work: - 1. Thread one end of rope through chains, tie in to biner with figure 8 on a bight, clip rope on other side of chain into biner so it's running free; weight rope, biner snugs up against chains. Rap down, then do the sine wave thing up the rope to get it moving through the chains, biner will slide down it, catch rope as it zips by you on way down, repeat. Two points of failure since friction would likely keep rope in place in chains (could reduce friction with biner on chains), and if it didn't, you'd likely miss the rope as it went whizzing by. - 2. This presumes flashlight or knife can hold body weight. Put one biner on chains. Tie flashlight or knife to rope a few feet from end so don't lose it, say with a constricter hitch on an extension; put a bowline or some other non-slipping loop knot that will pass through the biner in end of rope. Pass loop end through biner with bulk of knot still on original side of chain, put flashlight through loop, weight rope so flashlight blocks across biner. Rap down, then do the sine wave thing up the rope to get it moving through the biner, flashlight/knife will fall out of bowline; pull loop through biner, repeat. Again, two points of failure: flashlight/knife could slide off blocking position, and sine wave may not release it when you want to. In addition, this presumes that you know how many stations are missing bolts (we happen to have two biners for the two stations); if you didn't know this (real-life), you'd have to hang onto biners, which would mean putting loop directly through chains, and high likelihood that sine wave wouldn't release the flashlight/knife due to friction. It's also not clear whether the two biners are in addition to whatever's holding the ATC to the harness, or whether one of them is required for this, in which case you're definitely going directly through the chains on the last long rap.

As we all know, blue jays nest in trees. usually in forested areas.

I have the entire solution to the professor's challenge
majid_sabet wrote: A university professor (leading expert in South American blue jay) decided to go and check out the new nest by a dry waterfall. His plan was to rappel 700 feet on the face of the dry waterfall. ... The waterfall is dry, so a lot of trees and bushes, grass and moss, are growing on the cracks and ledges. This is home to a lot of creatures. But not blue jays! Jays like the big woods, the kind you see in Canada and USA, where they can fly from tree to tree. They like evergreens, especially pines, so they compete with red squirrels (but not grey squirrels, who prefer deciduous). In my neighbourhood, they often fly from tree-top to tree-top, always in a straight line, always at least 10 meters off the ground. When they meet a red squirrel, they argue for the rights to the tree branches. Based on this knowledge, the professor's solution is:
majid_sabet wrote: On early Monday, professor headed to see the blue jays. A hot summer day with no climbers around, professor decided to go naked ... professor decided to go naked as a jay-bird, and spent the rest of the morning enjoying the sun and the wind and the birds (but not the jays). After enjoying his lunch in peace, he packs up his clothes and gear, and hits the trail back to his camp, so he could enjoy a delightful dinner and lovely night. The professor might be smart, but he ain't crazy!

My first thought. Cut the fused ends of the rope and separate the core from the sheath. Then tie the two together and rap down using my ruined single. If this is a static rope, then I am at a loss. I can very well unweave one of those. Oh well, let hear the answer sometime.
