Gentlemen,

I am proud to announce my first round of KixGolf as host.
We will play with an ancient game originated in China. (no, not Go )
For starters, the difficulty level I chose will be tending more to be easy than medium.

I plan to start the private round on Sunday 22nd of October 18:00 CET, ending on 29th of Oct. 18:00 CET.
Public round therefore ending on 5th of November 18:00 CET

Please let me know here if you will play.
Oh, and don't hesitate to spread the news around those who are inactive, or just challenge your friends/coworkers ;\)

I will try to participate if time allows :-)
I'll also try to get "stoke" to participate.

Nice Arend,

Stoke seemed to be a natural born coder in last one and your nemesis (maybe even a skilled programmer?)
The only other co-worker we had here was back in the days as Jens hosted the Monty Python tourney IIRC

Yeah, stoke is one of our official coders.
I'm just the Systems Engineer :-)

Unless Life or Work gets in the way, I'll be playing.

Also sent out a few invites as well to past players.

awesome!

Have the package ready, so we could start today. But, lets keep to the announced schedule to get as many of the old bastards as we can.

nB: It's really fun to lonkenize this one. Wifey already complained
Took only 2 days from solving to golf-ready

I'm sure Jooel will fire up the "Lonkenization Engine" as usual... I've got a new coder at work that I'll introduce to KORG and see if they're up for a round. \:\)

with a bit of advanced pattern spotting skill set and a bit of bit-raking here and there.. should be doable for any of you \:\)
on PE this, there a bit more complicated problem, was solved by over 4.500 of around 18000 740.000 registered users.

Now. I am a bit afraid that I have to share points for the 1st 5 submitters and public will going to be boring golf-wise

HAH!!!
Already found the next golf challenge \:\)
Will be more coding biased than this, so you guys can shine on shaving strokes.
On the other hand I will have a bit more work to prepare this.

ok, I hope we are all still here on Sunday

Good news is: Next Golf tourney is ready to take place right after this one
Bad news is: The code needed for the next will be holding way more strokes ;\)

Can't tell how many at the moment, as I only have coded this in Python yet to get my test cases. Will have of course much fun with it in KiX to determine a intermediate handicap
