Week 4 Results


Link to video results for week 4

Addendum: I meant to show off THE EYE OF URANIUM by Sibling of TB as well. So look at it!











Challenge 8:
1st - Cannibalk Nine - 77/1/102 (state machine)
2nd - Half-wit - 121/1/126 (state machine)
GuavaMoment - 128/1/29
3rd - WildM - 128/1/29
4h - Jabor - 128/1/29
5th - Nethris - 128/1/29
6th(tie) cearn(nonSA), Added Space, Dr. Stab, MrBlarney, Amro, Mirror, TheKnife - 128/1/30
12th(tie) - AMURICANN HERO, Sibling of TB, JavaJesus - 128/1/31
15th - lardnar - 128/1/32
16th - Orthogonalus - 129/1/30

Cannibalk Nine and Half-wit built state machines to get under the mighty 128 cycle barrier. Time of submission tie-breaks were used on those who got 128/1/29 (since I suspected it was the best solution possible), and on the 129/1/30 solutions, forcing Major_JF into 17th place.




Cannibalk Nine - 77/1/102

Challenge 9:
1st - Jabor - 121/1/149
2nd - Cannibalk Nine - 125/1/108
3rd - Nethris - 181/1/95
4th - WildM - 188/1/183
5th - Dr. Stab - 238/1/133
GuavaMoment - 259/1/52
6th - Orthogonalus - 260/1/65
7th - Half-wit - 273/1/92
8th - mmkay - 309/1/123
9th - supergreatfriend - 350/1/170
10th - Pseudodude - 400/1/159
11th - MrBlarney - 426/1/40
12th - LeschNyhan - 445/1/68
13th - Amro - 460/1/117
14th - Sibling of TB - 492/1/142
15th - AMURICANN HERO - 518/1/51
cearn - 535/1/53
16th - Mirroar - 625/1/157

I believe MrBlarney has the fastest non-state solution. My solution actually correctly outputs the 11th plutonium (by fluke) but fails on the 12th one. The histograms this week are interesting - above we see a highly vertical spike, and below a highly horizontal spread.




Jabor - 121/1/149

Overall Standings:
1st - 27 points - Cannibalk Nine
2nd - 26 points - Sibling of TB
3rd(tie) - 21 points - Jabor, pingcode
5th - 20 points - Wild M
6th - 19 points - Added Space
7th - 18 points - Mirroar
8th - 17 points - Amro
9th(tie) - 16 points - Quatrefoil, TheKnife
11th(tie) - 15 points - Half-wit, MrBlarney
14 points - GuavaMoment
13th(tie) - 13 points - lardnar, LeschNyhan, Orthogonalus
16th - 12 points - JavaJesus

Cannibalk Nine takes the lead, and becomes the first person to have two number one solutions. He almost had both number ones this week!

Raw data and total standings


My shower curtain. I was with my parents and they were watching Big Bang Theory, and there was a scene in Sheldon's bathroom. I commented as a joke "I want that shower curtain". Two months later at Christmas comes "Guava! Open this one first!" I regret nothing.
