Yes, but I only posted that so you'd see which problem the GP is referring to: the second one. Unless somehow the rope is some special kind of non-flexible rope that always assumes the shape of a circle.

What makes you think that's the problem the GP was referring to? They haven't posted at all again in this thread to confirm exactly what was meant.
