I am trying to learn how to become a hacker, anyone got some tips on how to stay a hacker and not a cracker

You can start with C# and learn how to program in that language.

Once you can master d ...

there is a slight randomness to number of frames per digit.
That explains a lot. I almost thought I missed something. Thanks for pointing this out!

i think you'll be okay, because most of the tim ...

It would have been nice if the numbers evenly matched some fixed number of frames. I know how many numbers are supposed to be in there. Unfortunately, they don't seem to match the frames. So after a w ...

Thank you... I have made my code a bit more insane. Very Happy

Oh no! Why did you do that? Now I also have to squeeze some more... Very Happy

I half agree, but so far it looks like adum has been careful not to make anything else depend on solving KOTH challenges.

Then the lower left will be the first city that's a deadlock ...

I don' ...

The whole sense of this site is to get/apply programming skills Wink

Good God, do I have to beat tail's solution to reach that city? This seems to be very hard for a challenge which promises to be central for follow-ups.

And this is again a point where I really don ...

Oh, thank you for this analysis! This just saved me debugging a similar effect in my code. And btw: This also seems to be the reason for the trace-output of the stack being messed up.

By the way, "Poke me" and "Pokemon" are similar. Smile

Right, this was one of my associations (along with memory-stuff from BASIC) which didn't help me too far.

Did the title help you to discover the meaning of the numbers? All my associations of 'poke' haven't led to anything so far. Crying or Very sad

I think it's not too hard. But for me the motivation to start with a king-of-the-hill challenge is relatively low if there is no definite way to go (e.g. the choice of algorithm). You invest quite som ...

I guess the audible text is a rough hint at what to do. Maybe it's just my non-native ears, but I understand "Take key, stop and repeat", which makes no sense at all (or "retreat", ...

Anything special to do with the answer before submitting?

Not really. Once you have the plain text, it should be straight forward.

I wonder if other people have found simpler solutions, and if so, whether those are more or less effective than mine.

I think my current Mortal-Coil-Solver performs similar to yours. It is a relati ...

Wow, I can't believe that some day tails would have problems in some challenge (SCNR Wink

). But I have to admit that I also just guessed the solution. Did the others apply some processing to the im ...
