Ooh after looking KotH challenges, now I have three questions I want to sandbox. Bacon, VIC and a KotH about a card game that's popular in my city (and other parts of Asia, though I can only speak for my city)
@NathanMerrill gist.github.com/VisualMelon/f0c8adb7558fbc81b36f that's a working C# example, I can imagine it might be a pain dealing with unresponsive clients, but it's no effort for the client process
Determine if a number is a palindromic concatenation of squares
Just some time ago, I was looking at my user number, 10401, and realized it is a palindromic number with only squares as its digits. So now, I want to find many more numbers like this, and you can help me by writing a program that d...

Why I wonder do we flag spam? Is putting a flag on spam a good way to eat spam? This seems odd to me. Downvoted when someone realizes what the first words of these sentences are :P

EDIT: Fixed and working now. Just here as a reference since most bytes for Python 3.

Time for you to implement my new stack based language! It's called StackyMath. This will be a stack based language with 8 operations on the stack and ways to add numbers to the stack.
List of operations:
/: Division. Performed on the top 2 numbers of the stack. Pushes the result back on the st...
@NathanMerrill How people upload bots is actually up to the contest host (read: I haven't directly implemented it, but there are some ways for you to implement it). Two ideas that come to mind: The controller uses the SE API to get the most recent answers from the thread and include those in the run, or the challenge host updates their github with new entries.
@NathanMerrill You can specify exactly what commands are run in order to run the KOTH. Some of those commands can be the ones to get the latest from GitHub.
@NathanMerrill Yeah. Of course, if there's some feature you want to add, I can probably add it. I simply stopped development once I got something to work, thinking "if somebody actually wants to run a KOTH, I can fix it."
