huh.. waiting for better :)

BF just beat camelot by 16 bytes, ehrmm "chars" ;)

I love the whole oneupmanship spirit of these olympic battles ... keep pushing the impossible

PS: Hexathlon?

Hah! A new world record!

Yes!!

Hyvä TNT :)

uhm well... can you put ANY text in those 296 chars or is it all about finding the right scroller-text?
As i understand it, PETSCII goes up to $FF so 1 char = 1byte hence theres some sort of (simple) compression involved to make 296 chars fit in 256 byte (+ scroller code). if theres compression involved, the efficiency should vary with the content (ie repetition of certain letters/patterns, etc).
or am i completely wrong and theres something else going on here? i really dont have much clue about c64 code.

wysiwtf: The text is compressed to 5 bits/char, enabling 32 chars, or in reality only chars, space and dot. So 296 chars only need 185 bytes, and the trick is to make the smallest depacker/scroller routine.

For the coder spririt... :)
This thumb is also dedicated to others in the "contest"!

ah i see. i guess a "real" universal compression routine for the text wouldnt fit the size.
anyway, here goes my thumb.

roxx!!

this is just silly. BUT at least it is no tv noise thread :)

Any useful op's in the $00-$1f range? This is sick.

yes

for rising the bar:

I fully agree with Tony, he rocks.

VIDEO CAPTURE PLEASE!

;D

296 !

keep the glöps coming
