Project Euler Scoreboard - Inori - 03-26-2016

So, I sincerely want to publish more challenges, but I'm not creative at all and it takes me forever to come up with ideas. As such, I'm encouraging everyone who likes challenges to sign up for Project Euler, and post answers here.

Scoring will work as follows:
problems 01-25: 2 points
problems 26-50: 5 points
problems 51-75: 10 points
problems 76-100: 15 points
problems 101-200: 25 points
problems >200: 35 points

if you post a solution that I can't find copied from github and an explanation, you will be awarded 1.5 times the points you would get otherwise.

I will not post solutions to the problems but I will post screenshots showing that I have solved them, the entire point is that other people have to learn themselves.

I'd never post solutions for the very hard problems as that goes against the entire point of Euler.

I agree with Rick

Posting the solution ruins it

I agree with the others, posting the solution would be nasty.

That's fair. Posting a screenshot actually sounds a lot better.

Also if you're encouraging competition the scoring is dumb. Look at problem 206 and tell me if that's worth the most points.

Eh we're too lazy for that

Major props to anyone who does do that, though

What?

I was pointing out that 206 is easy as fuck but in the thread's op it says "35 points".

I solved many after this but never committed. I am not participating for points I am just sharing that's all. Maybe I will update it soon.

I'm not denying that, I'm just saying that it would be tedious to go thorugh every problem and individually assign a point value.

Maybe when more users start doing it people can report which ones were harder/easier to assign better point values.
