Hi there! I've got an idea for a new compo. It's not about size-optimizing, though. As you probably know, in IQ tests there often appear tasks in which a ...
Hi Ben, to put my vote into the bowl as well: [5] 11 Game: Digger @Adok: Sorry, I'm not too much into your idea since it's too time consuming. ... Kind...
Let's vote what the next compo shall be about: [ ] Arithmetic, geometric series, etc. regression [ ] Digger game Voting deadline: Sunday, September 10th, 2006 ...

Hi Ben & all! ... The problem with this approach is that the smallest entry would probably not solve many of the puzzles. In other words, it's easy to write a ...
We think the host/evaluator should produce an algorithm, and then the others optimise it. This was how all the previous compos were carried out, correct? Team...
... No. Usually only the task was provided. Part of the challenge was also to find an algorithm to accomplish this task. Sometimes there was an example...
Howdy Folks! Apparently Adok's proposal for the best algorithm to predict a series isn't going to fly. Well, how about this? There are compos/demos/intros that...

... Have always thought that something like a boot floopy disk compo wouldn't be bad. You've got 512 bytes to play with....
Hi guys. :) I think that the idea sounds interresting. Somewhat different from the usual compo, but would a bit of variation hurt? :) Perhaps some kind of ...
Hi there! I'd suggest 64b, 128b or 256b. Check out what can be done in 256b at www.256b.com. It would be quite cool seeing more of this stuff, but the problem...
Hi there! ... Everyone wants more bytes. Maybe 64b is more reasonable, but 256b has already been done many times - as www.256b.com shows. 16b is the logical ...

What if we started over? I mean, I have learned a lot about size optimizing by reading all of you guys' entries. What if we started over with HC1 again....

Hi Boreal, everyone. ... How about some rules. - Your entry must by 64 bytes in size. No less, no more. If your entry doesn't take all the 64 bytes, pad with ...

Hi Ben, I like the 64-byte limit, but wonder if most of the other rules are really necessary. Since the results are going to be subjective, we need to vote on ...

Hi Ben! ... It's also a nice idea, but honestly I doubt we would have much success at further optimizing the best entries. OK, some of the winning entries were...
Hi Boreal! ... I agree. ... Usually it's possible to vote for 1st, 2nd and 3rd at European party. It's usually also allowed to vote for your own submissions,...
So, this is now more similar to a demoscene event? I.e. do as much as possible in a certain size, not do a single task in as small as possible of a size? We...
I'd say: let's do a demoscene event this time, but not count the results in the world league table as it isn't comparable. Maybe this contest will spawn some...
