Running a small focused optimisation event. The focus is specifically on this puzzle and ACG as the metric, but feel free to optimise for other metrics of this puzzle when others are also looking at it. No stream is planned, so I will likely be dumping the solutions in descending order in a discord thread probably.
There are three ways to play this event if you choose to partake:
1) Play the metric in the tournament setting. Spoilers and the like will have to be self-regulated.
2) Take the layout preset and program it to completion. This will let you skip half of the area metric and focus on the competition without the variable of layout iteration.
3) Do (1), lock that submission in, then (2). This is the complete experience, as it lets you directly contrast your performance before the deadline arrives.
Rule 1) Turn on hermit mode and/or disable automatic record submissions. This is to keep the current record of 60a in place and keep motivation high.
Rule 2) Discussion is free within direct messaging or in a spoiler thread. Try not to spoil it within the event channel for those who do not want their experience contaminated. Teaming is allowed.
Rule 3) Have fun. If you are not having fun, you will be penalized 5G.
