Ok, this one is now finished too.
There is no post-mortem link yet, but you can find it at
http://la.pm.org/cgi-bin/PGAS/post_mortem.cgi?id=1

It's won by Spifff with an entry that the judges of tpr3
should take notice off. It probably means the rule
"must run in finite time" should be amended to something
like "expectation value of the runtime should be less than
a week"

The really interesting entry is in fact the one by Rick Myers 
because it can be trivially improved to 54:

-l for$.(++$_..pop){s!.!$.*"$&.$'"%($`?10:$^T)!eg}print

Can it be improved further ?
