For anyone out there looking for their challenge in PHP, you've come to the right place. Well, not really here, but close - over on CodeWalkers.com, they have their latest PHP Coding Contest posted.

With more and more sponsors jumping on board, more and more prizes are being offered this time. As for the contest, here's the details: This game is set up on a grid. The size of the grid is defined by the input given to your script. The input to your script also tells you the distribution of tiles on the grid and the number of tile types. Basically, your goal is to gain the most amount of points by strategically removing tiles from the grid. When you remove any given tile, all tiles of the same type that are attached to it (but not diagonally attached) are removed also. This concept of attached tiles being removed happens until there are no more attached tiles.

It's a pretty complex game, not only to just be able to play, but also to code. I can imagine that there'll be lots of work done on this one before a solution is found...
