::: comment :::

whereas game # 154 reached 10.6/10.6/2.6

but I have heavy doubts that in that one anybody will find a higher rating.


I generated millions (tens millions) of puzzles to find new seeds with a close to nil result
I put the cut off at skfr 9.2 and got about 1 new puzzle for 100 000

a comment is a comment and the content should be completely ignored by gremlin
catching part of a comment as an action is a crazy idea

agreed -- that case apparently has not been hit before

re-sign should get you back in[/i]

actually champagne's fault, his original "comment" had only "::" ( two, not three )

champagne, please do re-sign in order to post your 9.9/9.9/9.2 !

aha aha
nice catch
shows that forum parsing is hard for humans too

(Carefully, with three colons.) Since we humans can't allow a bot to win the game, I'm coming back in to use up my cache (which, surprisingly, isn't empty). I'll double check each submission to avoid further disasters.
