AI Contest - Minesweeper

[Darryl]

Ok I was thinking about doing a 15 puzzle contest (sliding puzzle) with the following rules:

I will post (in a new thread) a scrambled puzzle, and in the same post you post a solution only. (The moves to solve it) This means you can solve it by any means. If you use a program then attach it. Now the twist, you only post if your solution is fewer moves than previous. Figuring out a solution is not too hard. Figuring out a good solution may be a bit more challenging. And I believe figuring out the optimal solution is prohibited by your limited lifetime :-)

If you don't like that I have Risk ready to go. I have a tank battle that will need a few days and I have a poker that will need a few days as well. Let me know your thoughts.

I think the poker would be fun, that's simple and complex at the same time.
