thanks for the comments
I don't understand why you want to use ZULU (almost nobody knows what it means) instead of GMT.
zulu because of the g.r.emlin refs to aviation and the military
otherwise it would have been the iso UTC
Pat's puzzle (9.0) is isomorphic to mine's, posted just before...
good catch, "
I dup-puzzle-tie" added , "
R dup-rating-tie" retained
the stronger b]I[/b] is checked first, because two isomorphic puzzles (theoretically) must have the same rating,
but two puzzles with the same rating may not be isomorphic
It will be nice to have the current rules referenced somewhere.
I'll do that after one more round
no use documenting bugs
I personnaly think that the game will become a bit boring (same players, same winners, etc..) if no new challenge is infused from time to time.
I don't understand this -- the 1.5 challenge 0001 was to easy (too short time between successive entries)? or too long a wait after entries died down?
or fear that challenges with no human touch might become boring?
or something else besides matching SE ratings?
Only puzzles with symmetry of order 4 (or more) should be considered.
aha, that's a sticky point right now because sudoku -g has trouble finding higher order symmetry
that can be addressed after the accounting/timing kinks are worked out
one more round should do
