Final Standings
==========================================================
CONGRATULATIONS TO
D O U G J O N E S for m u d p a c k
AS THE WINNER OF THE February, 1998 King's Lottery POTM!!!
==========================================================
Here's the results of the final run:
WOW ... TOUGH CONTEST ... only FOUR entries progressed
past the N=37 round one of the finals ... congratulations
to Hal Burch and Danny Sleator, to Doug Jones, to Ted Alper
and to the "Happy Hacker" for making it to ROUND 2 .... N=98!!!
The results of the first round are shown below ... and
each participant will receive the results of their program.
THE SECOND ROUND ... N=98 ... only four participants
made it into the second round, Doug Jones' "mudpack"
found a 741 ticket solution while "ShowMeTheMoney" from
Hal Burch and Danny Sleator found a 750 ticket solution.
Ted Alper's "shroud_of_Turan" found a 762 ticket solution.
"DuckAndCover", from The Happy Hacker apparently only
found valid solutions (albeit the BEST ones) for values
of N less than or equal to 96. (Side note ... some of
the other entries actually found better N=98 solutions,
but they had not progressed to the second round by finding
the best solution in the first round ... go figure!)
Lots more mail will be coming to those who submitted programs,
and the website will be updated soon ... stay tuned ... and
thanks for participating in the POTM!
(and I'm sorry it took so long getting these results out. A
system problem coupled with the difficulty of checking the
results forced me to delay this mail an extra day.)
