Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

ieat: i'll help you with 3 and 6 if you help with 2 and 5.


i've got 1, 3, 6. will trade clues for clues on 2, 4, 5, 7, 8.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

In theory, up to the point where the two people intersected each other, it would oscillate with negative fractional exponentiation, producing decreasing decimal additions, but since people physically can't intersect, you can assume that we stop measuring the photon's distance the instant the two people collide.

EDIT: Ugh...ninja'd

Ok, Tass.

I also understand 4 now, but I can't extract an answer. : (

lightshark: Correct, but solving #1 using a series of summations would be disgusting -- it's more of a reasoning problem than a full-on physics problem IMO. You stop measuring once they collide, or more specifically, when the distance between the two people are 0.

I've gotta duck out for now, but good luck to you all!

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

Help with #1...



My answer came out that he lost money...
But I made it a physics problem full on...
And Rubix says it shouldnt be...

Any clues on how to begin?

I used the pythag. theorem...
But I dont think thats right...

If im not aloud to say that I used that... tell me in a PM...
I dont know the limits of what is considered "giving away" the answer

It *is* a physics problem technically, but what makes it special is that the standard way of solving such problems is, this time around, made easier by some additional facts which save you a lot of work.

Hard lol.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

I can't fully solve any of them but I can see where most of them are going.
Oh yeah,

All I can hope is that I don't have to solve any Rubix Cubes, hehe

IVE LEARNED TO SEE THE FUTURE.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

got confirmed correct answers for 1, 3, 6. unconfirmed for 2. most of the way done on 4. got some info on 5, but no idea if it's right. 7+, no clue.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

I don't understand 2 and 5 x(, and I can't see the number on 4 ... help please? T__T

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

HEHE... you got me there Rubix, seems these are relatively difficult problems. i think i understand 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

[Tasselfoot]

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

still need help with 4 and 5.... and i don't think 2 is fully solved either.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

challenge 3 is like incredibly easier than the rest imo...

[Kekeb]

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

I don't know... 6 is pretty easy.

EDIT: sarcasm?

[XBmaster]

Re: Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize)

I'm giving up for now.

I ended up with the answers to 1 3 6 and maybe 2 and 7, I'm not sure.

I'm part way into 4, and completely lost in 5.

I'm waiting for the clue Rubix
