I was thinking about something like this the other day (though the board is 5x5 and the middle space is a "free" space that everyone gets, well, for free). Except my question was, what is the largest number of cards that can be generated such that no two people can win at once? (The
Rules in short: the
"B" column contains 5 of the numbers 1-15 in any order, "I" contains 16-30, etc. (but the "N" column only has 4 numbers since the middle is a free space), numbers are called out one at a time,
and you win when you get 5 in a row horizontally, vertically, or diagonally).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
