They are far too complex. I can't even get the beaches to render properly.

Yes, but think of all the casinos in Monte Carlo. If you simulate that, you're bound to get the right answer dealt eventually, and probably before 200 billion years.

Yeah, I understand this, but I just don't think that I'd be able to get all of this done, in any reasonable timeframe.

Getting the AI right for the dealers/cocktail waitresses alone might take months.

In the meantime, I'm open to suggestions on how to continue.

don't worry guys. i've tracked op down and asked him to finally give us the answer

if he doesn't, i guess i'll give you a call Jim, since I have access to a Cray....

Yeah, this would be nice. Might only take a few hundred years, if we could get enough processing power, on it.

please force OP to post the answer and then ban him.

Elroy, do you think I should ask gild to move the thread to POG?

Do you think those guys would be able to solve this puzzle?

[His Boy Elroy]

We do have some great minds, but I doubt that we could figure it out if all the brain power of BBV put together couldn't solve this puzzle. Does anyone have Phil Ivey's email address? Maybe we could email it to him. Has anyone PMed Fossilman about this one yet?
