My verdicts (I never said I was an expert though):
Beerhunter has a nice serverthingie, but nothing obfuscated except naming: 0 points
Darobat fooled around with operator overloading and short naming and hiding true strings. Original to me, but not good enough: 0 points
Gamma has sent in a solution I like very much... but I don't want to vote for myself: 0 points.
Mattxl is readable AND understable after using a program like indent. Too easy, too many zeroes [erm, or as he calls it: (((54 * 28 ) - 3) * 0)] and too many code repeats (checking for winning lines): 0 points.
Schloob probably loves the BrainFuck "coding style". Not that readable after gcc -E and indent, but it is understandable: 1 point for best effort.
Exomo must eat pointers for breakfast. I like the idea of obfuscating by using void*: 1 point.

Schloob's is pretty easy to understand with the use of Ctrl+H (replace). Anyway, polls updated. I need to get an idea for the next contest but It should be up tonight or tommorow.
- Code: Select all
#include <stdio.h>
struct W{char m,M[4??),w;void x(char
*W)??<w^=w;while(w[W]!=0)putchar(W[w
]^M[w++%5??));}W():m(040),w(0){char*
X="d@PLfAU\x05P)sHEMoTTPF""\31";for(
;w<5;w++[M??)=m++);x(X);}}w;main(){}

Mastermind? Write a program that let's a player play, or, perhaps, write a bot that figures it out by itself.
I sense a Christmas theme coming up... Perhaps writing a Xmas-tree in 7bit-ascii? Or anything else related to Xmas or 31dec/01jan?
Can't think of anything else at 1am

Hehehe! Gama thanks for the constructive criticism. I was going to make it worse but I got busy at work and didn't have time. What, you didn't like all the "zeros"? 
I put the "zeros" there temporarily and I thought it looked funny, especially when it checks for every possible winning situation the long way. I only voted for myself cause I figured no one else would.

I hate it when that happens, but that's life I guess. You didn't change your opinion because of my (small) analysis I hope?Cold Flame wrote:I am changing my second vote from gamma to schloob please.

No, schloob showed me his code BEFORE he ruined it with the underscore defines. It is really good. The underscores just make it look like he wrote the game and then used find and replace to make it look ubfuscate but it's acctually really good without them.

I agree that it is more impressive without the underscores. About the change of vote: tough luck for me
