New Puzzle: Exclusive zugagagIt is theoretically possible, but I currently have no solution for it. |

For Exclusive ( zugagag): magiguc It's a low-tech approach, if you don't mind the wait. I'll see if I can come up with a high-tech solution too. |

For Exclusive ( zugagag): kozobeg. Simple and slow. jf: magiguc will fail by putting a 0 barrel on the matcher when the output is (X+1 barrel, X-1 barrel, X crate) or (X crate, X+1 barrel, X+2 barrel). |

Ah, so it does. Let's try again: For Exclusive ( zugagag): cepogud |

I could probably fix that, but instead, I created a high-tech solution: For Exclusive ( zugagag): fykupysThis solves on the first set of numbers which is not a pair or a straight (poker terms), which is as fast as it gets. |

For Exclusive ( zuqaqaq) I've made didogiv which is certainly slow and low tech. Not only that, but I think it should occasionally fail. The aim is to take the first of the three outputs only when the ? crates near the bottom are bigger than C to release crate, barrel, barrel as soon as they arrive, and discard anything else.I tried replacing the C barrel in the mechanism with a 3 or 4 barrel to speed up testing the level, and it seems to fail occasionally, which should be even less frequently with the C barrel. |

New Version: Exclusive 2 gusinyzI made the resupply manual and made the machine break down if a resupply is received after a valid output, making low-tech solutions impossible. Also thought I'd mention that the original version of the puzzle featured 2 random barrels. But since it almost never gave a valid output I reduced it to 1. |

For Exclusive 2 ( gusinyz): xotyrifI improved my design. I calculate the difference for each of three unique pairs of the three outputs. If two pairs generate 1 or F, a resupply is triggered, otherwise if a single pair generates 1 or F, the result selects one value of the pair to solve. |

Edit: small improvement: xabivyn also correctly picks the crate when the two barrels are the same (at least in 2/3 of the cases) |

Seems like we all used different approaches for the level... My solution: didycek |
