It just suddenly stopped one month, what is the point in having a 20 line challenge board without a 20 line challenge? I say bring it back, but have a selection of programs to choose from. I'd like to see some fresh attempts at making some good programs in under 20 lines. Maybe you could take the rules back to 5 commands per line, rather than 25, depends what everyone else thinks.

Isn't it? Wasn't it? Marvellous!

I'd like to see more varied challenges, like design a game using only 2d commands, or only text commands (remember that anybody? )

Get 15 new commands, all the date / time commands left out of DBPro for free!

With DBDN gone, there's no prize, but it'd still be fun to win .

I meant the prize could be a TGC product, or one that's advertised on the site.

Isn't it? Wasn't it? Marvellous!

The 20 Line Challenge is now being used for a code snippet forum
