With P.Kline's explanations (cf msg about Cannonade) we tried to build a spiral with a 'mov 0,2668' This solution beats well a 100%c gate. gate1 spl 0, <-10 dat <-11 ==> 67% W , 33% L , 0% T gate2 spl 0, <-10 dat <-11,<-11 ==> 33% W , 67% L , 0% T gate3 spl 0, <-10 dat <-11,<-12 ==> 67% W , 33% L , 0% T The problem : this solution isn't resistant against other prg. We tried to add a stone and a spiral 3-points (mov 0,2667) but it wasn't very effective. We think this solution can be upgraded. Good luck. inc1 equ 3 inc2 equ 4 inc3 equ 7 imp1 equ imp+2667 imp2 equ imp+2667+2667 start mov imp,imp1 mov imp,imp2 spl 8 spl 4 spl 2 jmp imp jmp imp1+1 spl 2 jmp imp2 jmp imp+1 spl 4 spl 2 jmp imp1 jmp imp2+1 spl 2 dat #0 spl 8 spl 4 spl 2 jmp imp+inc1 jmp imp1+1+inc1 spl 2 jmp imp2+inc1 jmp imp+1+inc1 spl 4 spl 2 jmp imp1+inc1 jmp imp2+1+inc1 spl 2 dat #0 spl 8 spl 4 spl 2 jmp imp+inc2 jmp imp1+1+inc2 spl 2 jmp imp2+inc2 jmp imp+1+inc2 spl 4 spl 2 jmp imp1+inc2 jmp imp2+1+inc2 spl 2 dat #0 dat #0 imp mov 0,2668 mov 0,2668 end start P.E.M & E.C
