Well, I'm somewhat joking. I don't actually believe Kelandon and Wizcozski are the same person. On the other hand, although I don't have any personal investment in the outcome of the round, you cannot deny that there was obvious collusion between those two people in the way the match was won. While not against the letter of the law, I am curious as to whether such behavior should be permitted in future rounds? -------------------- 5.0.1.0.0.0.0.1.0...

I claim invalidity by reason of multiple accounts belonging to the same person. I mean come on, s/he didn't even bother to use a different location! And the posting time is a minute apart! Check the IP, mods, I bet it's the same. Or close enough. Well, am I right? -------------------- 5.0.1.0.0.0.0.1.0... Posts: 508 | Registered: Thursday, May 29 2003 07:00 |

Does anyone know if arithmetic operations are included in the limit? If not, then I came up with a different algorithm based on demipomme's that might be more efficient: I haven't tested it extensively, so I don't know how many operations it uses, but if anyone wants to give it a try and let me know how it compares, I'd appreciate it.

Pirate 1: 998 Pirate 2: 0 Pirate 3: 1 Pirate 4: 0 Pirate 5: 1 Assume it's down to Pirates 4 and 5. 4 can just keep all the money, and 5 won't get anything. So 3 needs to convince 5 to vote with him, so he'll offer one coin to pirate 5 and keep the rest himself. Pirate 2, knowing that 3 will screw over 4, would offer 4 one gold piece for his vote and keep the rest. Pirate 1 needs votes from Pirates 3 and 5, and gets the votes by offering them one piece each, which is one more than they'd get from 2's plan.

Somehow I get the feeling that this cryptic "Play Za-Khazi Run" is some sort of hidden message Drakey is trying to convey. Maybe he's bound by the NDA but this is some sort of subtle way of telling us about Avernum 4? He can't be actually recommending it — he rated the BoE and BoA versions 4 and 5.7 respectively on the Lyceum. Perhaps A4 deals with the slith war or something? Or maybe the plagues of monsters mentioned in the A4 description are used in ZKR? What about those monsters Morog sends you to kill? Are they connected? -------------------- 5.0.1.0.0.0.0.1.0...

Well, what grade level are you? Such a huge number of books were written in those years; you'd need to give a little more information about what kind of book you're looking for before you can receive helpful suggestions. That said, the first book that came to mind when I read 1950 as your limit was 1984, by George Orwell, written in 1948. Edit: Actually I think it was written in '47 and published in '48. Whatever.
