Separate names with a comma.
Yeah, that's kind of the boring course of action. I thought of an easy notation that might reveal a hidden bias. My main concern was that there...
My internal Okkam's Razor is strongly opposing the notion of there being anything more than random slection. Why would you (as a developer) do the...
The 1 that appeared in the upper left corner from the previous move was shifted one space down, therefore the 3 that appears in the left column is...
Let me check that … So the short answer is: no, the tutorial does not explain the specifics of new card placement. It even violates them (I got...
Okay, I'll elaborate. Here are the rules for the placement of new cards as far as I know them (there are other theories): 1. A new card is placed...
First of all, welcome to the thread! Second of all, I'm glad you're enjoying it. Feel free to jump in and share ideas at any time. This behavior...
My kind of attitude. If you've reached the limit of hardware and coding-cleverness, throw time/patience at it and see how it does. I'm very much...
I'd like to pick the ball back up that was dropped on the topic of "What's the minimum number of cards on the board you can reach?". I don't have...
Here you go. There is a pattern but it is also random to a part.
TouchArcade show mentionings Hey guys, we made it into The TouchArcade Show #143 (from 1:12:45 to 1:17:31). Free kudos for all!
Sure it's funny to me too - I just wanted to address the little kernel of truth that might hide in his statement. Many people have developed or...
Thinking about your response lead to this: Counterexample: The following is a more than legal starting condition: _ 0 0 0 _ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0...
I think this is already proven. In Zeroes! I already showed that the neighborhood of any card cannot decrease in size. Since every card has a...
Okay, let me try. I will do this in Zeroes! for simplicity. First, I argue that neither of the merging cards can be lonely (what you call a...
The point of our "legal starting state" is to handle the exception I mentioned earlier where a lucky starting state would allow a lower minimum...
Now? Really? After we dissected the game and beat the average human player with an AI? Now you're backing away from the thread because we're...
Both of your counterexamples fail the conditions for a legal starting state I had to add later because of these flaws. Your first...
If's not a counterexample if it does not contradict the proof. You could uye the Code-Tags to clearly format your board like so: 12 _ _ 3 _ 2 3 _...
Sure. But first, we have to deal with the exceptions, namely the starting position. The game starts with 9 tiles on the board. If you were lucky...
You are very much correct! Luckily, the poetic touch still holds. :) [SPOILER]
