Yahoo's running this contest. Read about it here:

This took me about 40 minutes, total. I was thinking about re-writing
|
|
this in Bacon, but my Bacon is pretty raw. At best, I could
|
|
propertize the cards to create a new card (i.e. a new state) every
|
|
time a ball came in, but that seemed a little overwrought.
|
|
|
|
It was nice to have an opportunity to hack Coffee and Node again.

I don't know that I trust Yahoo's server. At least once I got back a
|
|
"you lost" signal from the server. Since this client includes full
|
|
playback of every game, I could see that I had clearly won.
|
|
Unfortunately, my initial code assumed "lost" as the default state, so
|
|
I couldn't see if maybe the 'won' signal was lost before receiving the
|
|
disconnect. I've changed that to 'playing,' so we can see that
|
|
condition now.
