Rules: <insert editable rules here>
/rules
Guidelines:

# Language:
The final entry must be written entirely in TI-83 series BASIC. It must be compatable with the platforms listed below under subheading Platforms.
# Pre-existing
A project that prior to this contest has been released or distributed will be an automatic winner
# Releasing Information:
You are prohibited from withholding any information or screenshots about your project. Anything you create that lasts for more than five (5) minutes on your hard drive must be uploaded for all to see. This includes notes, calculator files, and screenshots.
# Legal stuff:
All submissions are the property of Alex M. Ruddick and Robert Dole. That means we are free to do whatever we want to them, even if it includes harm to your calculator, computer, person, reputation, or any combination thereof. If you have managed to submit a copyrighted program, congratulations. We wish you the best of luck in avoiding the federal enforcement officials that are currently en route to arrest you for copyright infringement.
# Deadline:
Contest Entries will be accepted into the provided asmcontest program tracker up until February 31, 2006 24:01 (MST)
# - Readme.txt (see below) - Routines.txt (see below) Readme.txt:
This file should be formated in ASCII Text (no html, rtf, etc.)
This file must contain the following:
- Description of all includes files in the archive.
- Instructions for Installing, and Using the program.
- The source code for the project. Please have a newline colon on each line and keep one command per line. You MUST comment each line with a description of what it does, what variables are used, and any output generated.
# Platform:
Must run on 83, 83SE, 83+, 83++, 83+SE, 83++SE, 83.5, 83.5+, 83.5-, 84, 84+, 84++, 84-, 84SE, 84-SE.
# Rejections:
Any program that does not meet the criteria below might be rejected, depending on the current weather conditions.
We reserve the right to reject any submission if we feel like doing so.
Judging & Criteria
Entries will be Judged by Alex M. Ruddick (alexrudd) and Robert Dole (bobbyboy).
Projects will be Judged if and whenever we feel like.
You must create a tracking number for your project. Use of t3h ult1/\/\@t3 random n|_|mb@r generator is advised.
The project will be tested thrice, natively on a real genuine TI, on a fake but real TI, and in Virtual TI. The memory will be reset prior to testing each program, and during execution if deemed necessary.
Each Project will be judged against a scale of Total Points in the following sections:
# (10 Points) Game has a title that includes one of the following: ultimate, super-duper, the best, random, awesome, pink, or gurplenator. The title must have at least 5 and at most 5 words. At least one of the words in the title must be written in 13e+ or similar.
# (10*(6-7)/(-1)) Points) Gameplay is as slow as possible. Each second spent waiting for it to load will result in a point, with a maximum of 10*(6-7)/(-1).
# (100 Points) Game is stable and does not crash. Each crash will result in the deduction of 10 points. The game will be tested for all possible errors. Each key will be pressed once every 3.2 seconds, including the [ON] key. Penaltiess for errors will be as follows:
Break: Immediate disqualification
Syntax: Rapid disqualification. Hearing before Board of Grammer, Punctuation, and Syntax Misuse.
Divide by 0: Quick disqualification. 65 years supervision.
Nonreal Ans: Prompt disqualification. 45 years jail time, no parole.
Data Type: Possible disqualification. $200,000,000 fine.
Domain: Eventual disqualification. Execution by hanging.
# (3.14159 Points) Game is time consuming to install. The more steps the better. Having to use four or more installation programs is a plus.
# (1 Point) Game utilizes appealing graphics, looks good, aesthetically pleasing. Any graphics other than stick figures will result in the deduction of 600 points.
# (randInt(0,20) Points) Source code - will be judged on three criteria:
1. Has comments. As with the .txt version (see Subheading readme.txt above), you MUST comment each line with a description of what it does, what variables are used, and any output generated.
2. Is complete. This means no removing ending parenthesis, quotes, or brackets.
3. Does not use any of the following: Output(, Disp(, Pause(, Text(, Line(, Horizontal, Vertical, ClrDraw, Circle(, Pxl-... or Pt-... commands, or ClrHome.
# (1337 Points) Good menu system. (should contain as many submenus as possible. Using the built-in Menu( command is a plus. Duplicate menu items and unnescessary items are also a plus.)
# (~10 Points) Game has the ability to inaccuratly save and load games. Each time the game is saved/loaded, every variable should be off by at least 67.4 or one factor of ten.
# (24000 Points) Program size. Each byte of code that does not affect gameplay and/or is totally unnescessary will be one point.
# (10 Points) Going further than expected... e.g. built-in random numbar generator...
# (1000000000 Points) - Chicken appeal. Each program will be run before an obliging chicken, who will then rate the program on a scale of 1-1000000000 by pecking out morse code for the hexadeciamal value of the score
# Sir Robin reserves the right to change any section of the Rules (and only the Rules) at any time. Sir Robin isn't required to tell anyone he's done so, but will gloat anyway.
The Project with the highest Total score will be declared the losing project. All other projects will be ranked according to the random numbar generator.

And our first winner is Supergoose! (See subheading # Pre-existing). Congratulations!
EDIT: On the basis of 4 small points, I, acting as Judge (see Judging & Criteria), officially edit this post.
1)The second judge, Robert Dole, was not present to officiate and deem you the winner as well.
2)Although the program was pre-existing, it was someone else by the name of Alex who submitted it first. He/She wins, whoever he/she is.
3)There are numerous obscure technicalities that I have yet to come up with that would make me the automatic winner.
4)Being the judge I can do whatever I want.
Alexrudd is officially declared the winner!

there's another -10 points. "Crap" is not a good enough title. |

Lucky for you that A is such a popular place. If it weren't your program would create a syntax error, resulting in Rapid disqualification. Hearing before Board of Grammer, Punctuation, and Syntax Misuse.
Other than than, your program is currently the best in title, menus, comments, not using forbidden commands, size, and going beyone the expected (One of two programs in the world to reveal Nick's ticalc.org password!!!). Unfortunately, it does not innaccurately save/load games, is way too fast, and does not take any time to install.

[post="0"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post]Here's the best BASIC programming ever, for the 84++ of course:
Code:
Disp "............Done"
While 1
Input X
Disp 58(X^2)
End
There's just no logical way it could lose; Kalk said so!

About the savin and loading: i'm working on that. The speed should go down once i release it with 10K of unused data in the beginning of the program (slows down the labels!). Installation.. i don't know about that yet... |

Due to #Release of Information, here is an excerpt from my future program, this isn't finished yet but it's been on my hard drive for 5 minutes.
Code:
If 2+2=4
Then
Goto Q
Lbl Q
randBin(1.0*10^99,1=0)->Q
End

If 2+2=4
Then
Goto Q
End
Lbl Q
randBin(1.0*10^99,1=0)->Q
This should be much faster because it uses the RAM dynamically. |

Are you kidding? You have to think about size!
Code:
If 2+2=4:Then:Goto Q:End:Lbl Q:randBin(1.0*10^99,1=0)->Q:Disp "UTI Rooles
See? that only takes one line of programming. |

Code:
:Lbl 1
:Lbl 2
...
:Lbl 999
:Lbl 1000
takes only seconds to execute, but
Code:
:Goto 1
:Goto 2
...
:Goto 999
:Goto 1000
:Lbl 1
is even faster! That thousands of Goto's and Lbl's in the time it would take to perform one measly GarbageCollect! |
