The first output is on cycle 188. The next occurs about 1.4 million cycles later. At standard sim-speed it should take close to 200 hours to reach the victory screen. [Laughs in number theory] Arms 1 through 5 are the input/output assembly. Arms 6 through 11 form the delay mechanism: Arm 6 provides a factor of 11. Arm 7 loads the earth atom and starts the sync-check each tape loop (the grab-drop). Arm 8 provides a factor of 7. Arm 9 provides a factor of 8. Arm 10 provides a factor of 13. Arm 11 provides a factor of 15 (5 for track, 3 for rotation), and is also responsible for unloading the earth atom when the sync-check finally succeeds. This results in a rate of 1,441,440 and thus a metric score of about 8.3x10^-6.
