old perl obfuscation contest

mushu has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

This is for perl hackers older than teenagers. About a decade ago TPJ ran a contest for 4 or 5 years and one entry was an othello program whos code was in the shape of an othello board, and it played a mean game of othello! I used to think I was king of Google searches but attempting to find this program has defeated me. Is there a true Monk here that can show me the path to wisdom please?

Thanks, I'll take a look. I think I might have it stuffed away on an old 3.5" diskette but it might not still be readable because the magnetic gauss stuff bleeds off over time ya know...	[reply]
