:::: Modified the task description. Let's get some more feedback. --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 13:01, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 
:::: Bwahhh! You didn't use my sketch! :P :P :P [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 13:28, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 
== Very cool! ==
 
I think this is a great task! I will be cooking up an example soon enough.
This is one of the better (IMO) draft tasks here; I don't see why more examples aren't present. --[[User:Crazyfirex|Crazyfirex]] 00:03, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
: Simple. It's quite a bit of work to produce a good implementation, so it keeps drifting down below top priority on peoples' radars. It is majorly cool though. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 09:45, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
 
:: +1 on your explanation. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 09:58, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
::: Thanks.
 
== Oops - examples of image/output needed ==
Sorry folks, my bad, the task says sample output/image. I'd skipped mine because I used it in the task and set a bad example for the others. Both C and Autohotkey don't show their output. I don't have the heart to mark them incorrect for a while. Also, if a prettier image (like an animated gif) example comes along feel free to replace the original one with that - I'm not that proud. --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 03:00, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
:mark them incomplete?--[[User:EMBee|eMBee]] 03:27, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
:: I reached out individually for now. Give them a chance first. (Is there an incomplete vs. incorrect template --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 03:34, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
::: All fixed now :) --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 22:06, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 
== Tcl solution ==
 
I admit it! I just pointed to a solution elsewhere. The source code ''is'' there, as is a picture of the thing in operation, and in my defense it's a really ''great'' implementation that is dropping pictures of balls and not just round dots or characters. There's also a “plink” noise whenever the ball hits a peg. I could copy the code across, but I don't see why I should bother. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 17:29, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
: Preference is to have an on-site solution, even if it isn't as nice a one as is found elsewhere. (I wouldn't be a fan of wholesale copy, anyhow, out of copyright concerns.) --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 18:23, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
