people doing nothing but announcing numbers was pretty far from fun for
those of who aren't that interested in
You're all right. My bad, but as I said, it's been a long time since
I've been on this list. My apologies.
We'll finish up this little contest and then leave the golfing for the
official site. How about 11:59pm GMT on Monday the 28th as the deadline?
Send your scores to me, and I'll send out
sounds fine to me, I hope we can see all solutions (in one message?)
instead just the best one. now it's fun :)
good luck!

16?!? Very impressive. I can't think how I'd even just print out the
solution(s) in 16 characters, much less compute them...I'm looking
forward to seeing it.
I've been stuck at 181 for a while. Should we set a deadline for this
thing? Is anyone else working on it?

Okay, I'm down to 148 now, and I think, I'm on my limit. I'll
publish mine as soon as no one wants to compete anymore.
I am working on a solution, but I don't think I'll manage to
finish tonight, and tomorrow I'll be gone from home until
hi,
there cannot be golf competition without strict rules and input data.
I haven't seen the data at least. I'm sorry but golf takes lot of time
chasing (possibly non-existent) solution and I guess lot of people
won't participate just to find that someone tricked them with the initial
rules
You're right, Vladi. Although there's a site for more official golf...I

Second, from what I remember of golfing (it's been a while for me),
you're actually *not* supposed to publish your solutions until the end.
It gives the competition ideas.
