Congratulations to the winners of A1 and B1

[stuart]

After 2 full days of testing, The winners for contest A1 and B1 have been decided.

It has NOT been an easy task picking these winners, especially in the beginners contest, as many of the submissions were almost as good. But there has been a winner. The Flipping Shuffles judging took around 10 solid hours to do with many surprises and some very interesting results, but again there has been a winner (althought it was very close).

The beginners contest winner A1 (Personal Diary) goes to: Tengku Jasshwa

The advanced contest winner B1 (Flipping Shuffles) goes to: cagrET

Very well done to the winners.

I must also thank everyone else who entered, there has been some very very good entries, Im only sorry that second, third.. places were not set for these contests.


NOTE: Will the winners please reply here stating which prize they want (Zend or PHPed) - first reply picks!! - the other prizes are automatically yours.

p.s. all code and results will be released very soon (when I get time).

Thanks again.

Stuart

Congrats to the winners!

And "DOH!" to the dummy (myself) who wrote an entry that required Register Globals be "On"....DOH!

Congrats! :lol: I wish I could have won, but I learned so much, I really don't care that I didn't win ^.^ Besides, I knew mine felt....unfinished. It's fine, I won't be doing this one either, but I'll win the next :twisted: hehe

Congratulation to the vinners!

Can we know the full ranking? It shouldn't take much time to post a list with the position of all entries. (1st place, 2nd place, 3rd place ....)


Thank you,
Peter

I will post much more details with scoring/ranking ASAP, please bear with me as I am rather busy right now.
I want to present the details in a readable manner so it will take more than just a couple of minutes, I also will post all, or at least, most of the code submitted.

take it easy

Thanks for posting all the details about the code. Looks good.

Interesting to see the methods people used. Looks like brute force style searches were the most popular way to do it.

Also. Congrats to the winners.
