Who won??

Post by thayneq »

So I submitted my code entry at 11:17am. I was at work on a conference call when the email came in, so I'm positive I did not win.

What were your submission times?

Is anyone else disappointed that they released all the maps in one email? Sort of took the skill out of getting the transparencies all lined up since now you could just throw it into photoshop for 20 seconds. :cry:
Opening order:
BR 50h. Fast=28s
BK Obs 12h.
BL 25m. Fast=12s.
GR 3h.
AG 20h. Fast=1m56s
AU 70h.
RD 1h.
RD Obs 6h.
OR 20h.
LM 40h. Fast=2m12s
IN 16h.
AQ 15m.
TI 8h.
CU Au plated

Not started:

yeah, I agree, they should have only sent the one map.

but I screwed up my submission so I know I didn't win. But mine went at 11:04...

For what it's worth I already had everything stacked, just had to add the gold.

I submitted at 11.16, so just a fraction ahead of Thayne.

Good luck everyone, I wish all of you the best, and I'll be happy for whoever was the fastest.

I spent (I.e. wasted) 6 minutes to print the gold map to a usable scale, and needed about 2 minutes to solve the maze and send the answer.
Then I noticed my web mail screen froze, so I was not sure if my mail was sent.
It took me one more minute to send another message from another device.
So 20:09 (Dutch time) is my time, and I still think my code is correct.

Sorry to hear about some of you screwing it up, but how did you do that?

Mine was screwed but I submitted it.
They could have at least made the maps the same size as the originals so it was easier to line up.

I had printed the first 4 maps merged together on a transparency, then downloaded the gold map and scaled it to match...
I missed a letter when I was typing in the solution, and I didn't double-check...

Damn!
