Competition Scrambles

I have been making sure to save the scrambles from my competitions, and uploading them, but that's not very noticeable. I could submit links to them as competition media, but I feel this is information that is [i:2xdamdkf]part of the competition[/i:2xdamdkf], not [i:2xdamdkf]about the competition[/i:2xdamdkf]. Does it seem reasonable to host PDFs/zips/text files of the official competition scrambles with the official WCA database?

Please email me some of the files so I can see what you have and how. One issue I see is different groups in one round. We don't know which group someone was in, so you might have to guess which scrambles he got. Although, people themselves should be able to identify them, and for final rounds and for events like fewest moves I guess there's often just one group. So... I guess this issue is a minor one.

Here are two sets of scrambles that I've made public in the past: http://cubeclub.org.ohio-state.edu/comp ... scrambles/ http://www.cubingusa.com/thankscubing/welcome (the 'scrambles' link is a zip file)

And if we use a standard naming scheme, it could look like this: http://www.stefan-pochmann.info/results ... ionals2009 Note that each round of 3x3x3 (didn't bother to rename the others) got a link to its scrambles. Btw... 600 KB for one page of pyraminx scrambles?!

These pages look pretty good to me. Speaking of the pyraminx scrambler, can we have the triangles [i:1u4dqboz]not[/i:1u4dqboz] look like top-hats? Replacing draw_triangle with this should fix it... [code:1u4dqboz] function draw_triangle(pat, color, val) { var s = ""; if(pat == 1) { s += "<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>"; s += "<tr>"; for(var c=1; c<=12; c++){ s += "<td width=1 height=2 bgcolor=" + colorList[colors[color] + 2] + ">" + val+ "</td>"; } s += "</tr>"; for(var i = 1; i <= 5; i++) { s += "<tr>"; s += "<td colspan=" + i + " width=" + i + " height=2 bgcolor=silver></td>"; s += "<td colspan=" + (12 - i * 2) + " width=" + (12 - i * 2) + " height=2 bgcolor=" + colorList[colors[color] + 2] + "></td>"; s += "<td colspan=" + i + " width=" + i + " height=2 bgcolor=silver></td>"; s += "</tr>"; } s += "</table>"; } else if(pat == 2) { s += "<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>"; for(var i = 5; i >= 1; i--) { s += "<tr>"; s += "<td colspan=" + i + " width=" + i + " height=2 bgcolor=silver></td>"; s += "<td colspan=" + (12 - i * 2) + " width=" + (12 - i * 2) + " height=2 bgcolor=" + colorList[colors[color] + 2] + "></td>"; s += "<td colspan=" + i + " width=" + i + " height=2 bgcolor=silver></td>"; s += "</tr>"; } s += "<tr>"; for(var c=1; c<=12; c++){ s += "<td width=1 height=2 bgcolor=" + colorList[colors[color] + 2] + ">" + val+ "</td>"; } s += "</tr>"; s += "</table>"; } else { s += "&nbsp;"; } return s; } [/code:1u4dqboz]
