<mjn> 'Jumps (mjn's variation)' uploaded by mjn:
I had an impossible vision of what the solution to "Jumps" was going to look like; it turned out to be possible with a couple of small changes... |

<Tom 7> The server is indeed full and will be unfilled momentarily.
<John Lewis> Maybe noname's records somehow overloaded the server! ;-)
<Max> I'm getting the same message for uploading a new level as well. I'm guessing the server's full?
<John Lewis> I'm getting the same message (as Dorothy) when trying to upload a new record for this level... |

<Dorothy> I got 104 moves on this one beating the 116 moves speed record, but when I try to upload it, I get an error message: Upload failed (bug) bad solution. |

<Max> (SPOILER) I'm relieved your speedrun, while much faster than the original, wasn't a cook on this one, noname... |

<Max> (SPOILER) I don't think that's really a cook, noname -- it doesn't really evade the crux of the level enough for that. But still, nice speedrun! |

<mjn> I'm the one who solved it, but I cheated (I have a graph theory textbook with a knight's tour on the cover). I didn't feel right claiming the speedrun under those circumstances... |

| Knights and Rotations |
Sat 09 Jul 2005 12:35 |

<noname> (SPOILER) I solved it by noticing the following:
Claim: If the board can be divided into two halves such that:
(i) One of the halves, when rotated 90 degrees, becomes the other half;
(ii) There is a reentrant knight's tour in one of the halves;
then there is a solution to this puzzle.
Proof: Just identify the two halves. In more detail, just follow the knight's tour in one of the halves: move normally when moving from red to black; and when following the KT from black to red, one just rotate to the other half, make an appropriate knight move, then rotate back to the first half.
So it remains to find a way to split the board into two halves satisfying (i) and (ii). It turns out that when I solved KT, I used eight circuits which has rotational symmetry among them, and I just need to join four of them to yield a solution. |

<noname> Just wondering, why didn't anyone claim the speed record? (There is certainly someone who solved this before me, and it is clear that any solution optimized to the same length...) |
