If you dig into the details of the challenge, you'll find a page-long score with lots of these. And in many places you need another voice on the same staff. So that would be a problem with my solution or either of Luigi's; they use up the only two voices allowed. Plus, it's really tedious to figure out the various parameters. If PMX were going to meet this challenge, I think we'd have to follow another path. If we admit some inline TeX, can anyone define a TeX macro that makes one of these 12-note groups in a generic way? It would be really hard, keeping track of the slope and starting heights of the various parts. I've thought about it some but can't really get started.
