I think the one hour time restriction would be feasible. I do not recall any KiXgolf tournament where the code ran for more than just a couple of minutes, Howard's CD Sorter and Jooels Mayan Numbers excluded. So, going forward, max runtime would be one hour.

Thanks Jens, I really have no intention to use the 149 code and would like to officially remove it from the competition, it was meant more as a joke, and as in the recent discussion it removes from the spirit of the game.

jens, I do remember that in some round I had to reduce the tests by removing the hardest ones in order to be able to run the validator inside couple hours.

anyway, the one hour limit is ok for me.
but think there will be cases in the future that a code runs in 55 minutes on one computer and 1:05 on another and we will have this discussion again.

You could do what you suggested in an earlier post - rather than using real time as a metric, use user cpu cycles. This should be pretty close on main processor lines for the types of challenges that we are undertaking.

You can't include system CPU cycles as these are too easily influenced by whatever else the PC is up to.

Now all you need to do is calculate a reasonable user CPU load for 15 minutes

SPIRIT guys, SPIRIT

5 or 15 minutes isn't going to hurt anyone.
Main idea is that no one has time or inclination to validate anything that runs for hours and hours or even days.

After revisiting my original code I was able to golf it down to 380.

Code:

Function m($i)
Dim $a,$b,$c,$d,$,$p

If $i=$i+0
$p=20
$a="|",":","."
$d=5,2,1
Do
$b=$i-$i/$p*$p
$=$b/($p/20)
If $=0
$m="-"+$m
Else
For $c = 0 to 2
While $/$d[$c]
$m=$a[$c]+$m
$=$-$d[$c]
Loop
Next
EndIf
$p=$p*20
$i=$i-$b
If $i>0
$m=" "+$m
EndIf
Until $i=0
Else
$p=1
$i=Split($i)
For $c = UBound($i) to 0 Step-1
$=0
For $b = 1 to Len($i[$c])
$a=SubStr($i[$c],$b,1)
$=$+($a=".")
$=$+($a=":")*2
$=$+($a="|")*5
Next
$m=$m+$*$p
$p=$p*20
;Next
EndFunction
