[Pat]

This pattern {301} is related to 293

i + j = 2 + 2 = 4

they only differ in b5,
does this justify the great difference in the high ratings?

[Pat]

Interestingly, the referee accepted my 2 consecutive submissions.

So, if I wanted to cheat, I could submit my best submissions,
effectively blocking the further progress of the game.

the 9.2 gave you 5+69+34.5 points;
but the next submission -- 9.1 -- gave you -50+0 points
( nobody gets the 68+34 points )
-- probably a losing strategy

[dobrichev]

+0, if true, makes sense. Thanks.
