Welcome - The Ruby Game
- jnotarstefano 15y agoI really loved this! I liked the fact that I could read other people solutions. Is there an equivalent for Python, or any other language?
- petercooper 15y agovimgolf is very similar, and has an interesting mechanic of not letting you see significantly better entries than your own.
- gurkendoktor 15y agoInteresting, but why require Twitter out of all things? I thought Ruby had the multi-auth thing nailed.
- JonnieCache 15y agoIt does. It's trivial to use as well. https://github.com/intridea/omniauth https://github.com/intridea/omniauth Why would you not hook this up to github for auth? EDIT: The site is great by the way. My tone of disappointment at the authentication system is motivated by how nice the thing is.
- danso 15y agoI'm a little slow this morning....the top solution is just a string? The submitter just did a fake entry to get the answer and then submitted a second one?
- quandrum 15y agoThey cheated. The page says all code will be rerun with different input at the end of the week to determine the true winner, so all the hardcoded answers will drop out at that point. Though it seems this problem has an obvious fastest solution that has been found and mimic'd repeatedly.
- extension 15y agoPerhaps they should rerun with different input immediately after submitting.
- mr_luc 15y ago"This code has already been submitted by catphish." Is this by design?
- mr_luc 15y agoAlso, if it's by design: Placing a random comment after my submission lets it through. So you might want to strip out comments for that bit.
- instakill 15y agoInject is a beautiful thing, and looking at the leaderboard, a lot of people seem to agree.
- rb2k_ 15y ago> This code has already been submitted by darkphnx Ok, so I have to add random noise to my solution? O_o
- anonova 15y agoThis is really lame, especially if elegance is part of the judging criteria.
- adamcooke 15y agoa) this check only checked identical code so any more (or less) elegant code was still permitted. b) we now don't check for this but "similar" code will be grouped together to make things easier to hear.
- anykey 15y agoI really love this idea, and I want to compete but it appears the site is down, and I'm unable to submit solutions. I've been wanting a version of Vimgolf targeted at Ruby for quite some time, it's an awesome way to improve your skills and uncover great tricks.
