judges get tired of them?</p>
<p>A: Yes, there are types of entries that show up over and over again.
The guidelines say:</p>
<pre><code> We tend to dislike programs that:
are similar to previous winning entries
We like variety. However too often we see (please look at the winning
examples given to be aware of the level of the competition):

generating small primes (below is the list of all prime related entries)
1985/august
1988/applin
1994/weisberg
1995/makarios
1996/dalbec
2000/bellard
As you can see, just a list of primes (let alone small primes)
does not cut it anymore.
(snip)
entries that use some complex state machine/table to print something
1988/isaak
1988/phillipps
Unbeaten for 12 years and counting...</code></pre>

<p>I think this is enough motivation for trying to submit a program which uses
some complex state machine/table to generate small primes and print them.</p>
