while doing some testing / rating match-ups of Paul Isaacson's SE clone, I discovered this puzzle in game 17

Code: Select all

009000600000301000800050002050708030008000700070503040200030009000407000006000100 # 138    4.0/4.0/3.2 - m_b_metcalf


It rates at 7.2/7.2/3.2

Intriguing that g.r.emlin didn't pick it up at the time nor anyone else since.

Bryan

p.s. reading through some of the early games - it was a little bit "wild west" back then

right, including fears of possibly creating a new morris worm or even skynet ...

I saw it long ago, it's a singularity.

As in it's the only instance or a black hole???

It was the only one I noticed (because it was way out) testing from 1.2 to 6.2 for games 14 to 127
