strategy?
as you could've posted 5.6 or 6.0

as hinted by a few JPF messages back, and in a not-the-turk twist (google "the turk"),
I don't make plays directly, but instead through an agent program (separate from g.r.emlin's programs)
I periodically tweak the agent to take on human-player characteristics

via pm JPF helped throttle it for fair play (I don't want to take the fun out of the game for any player)
the goal is for the agent to play the way I would

the agent isn't totally independent
I manually control strategy as the game progresses
over time the manual tweaking makes its way into the agent program
one of the manual control strategies is play only pearls or diamonds
the game closed before I could issue play anything

I guess this means I like playing the coding the patterns game game
its all done in unix shell with my solver as the search component

sure, i saw that comment on wake/sleep

the question is,
would you ever choose the strategy of letting the game time-out when you do have a playable puzzle?

no

do play any playable puzzle if we've reached 10-minutes-to-timeout

if the answer is no,
then this can be defined for your "agent" --
do play any playable puzzle if we've reached 10-minutes-to-timeout

the answer depends on the behavior of the other players
in this game TTHsieh seemed to have a full quiver of moves left
some of them were still pearls
but I probably would have made at least one play had I been awake

not sure what your question is
as you've properly used [size=4] (no spacing)
and it did work
(i've now reduced it to 2 thus preventing wraparound)

there's a rendering problem somewhere, maybe my browser or forum settings?
these 9 lines all display the same size for me:
111
222
333
444
555
666
777
888

something in your web-browser?
as i see the incresing sizes as you specified

sorry for the diversion
it is a firefox setting
on my windows machine the forum renders ok
but on linux I would need a magnifying glass to read the default fonts
so I set the min font size to 15
and now I know why some other sites have text encroaching on image problems
what I really need is a global photo-copier-like expand by x%

by **Pat** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 11:11 am

a fine diversion before the next game starts

in Microsoft IE 7 -- not that i'm trying to encourage anyone to use it -- at the bottom left they have exactly that option -- set x% as it suits you---

size=x

font-size:xpx
