Submission Comments
Why?

After the previous publication some mistakes were noticed. Then there was a big discussion about unpublishing runs and stuff. So I made a movie fixing the mistakes. Then I found two more mistakes. Then I started questioning how to even apply the four colour theorem to pixel art with outlines. Then FractalFusion made this insane list. If you find any more mistakes, I will delete my account correct them.
I contacted warmCabin 10 days and haven't had any response (and the mistakes in the thread have been around for longer).

Fixes

1 is an edge case. There was also some discussion about the black part of the eyes. If you consider it the same colour as the inner eye then the yellows on dinosaur 6 are touching, but this goes against common sense.

Unpublishing the previous run

Sounds like a fun discussion. I will say that the author and judge both made a mistake on the previous submission, and unpublishing can rectify that. It's probably equivalent to a 100% run not actually getting 100% (and that being known at the time, rather than a new discovery towards 100% later on).

Special thanks

No thanks to these goobers:
  • Kenneth Appel
  • Wolfgang Haken
  • Representative Jay Obernolte
  • Tommy Tallarico, co-creator of the Roblox "oof" sound

ViGadeomes: Claiming for judging.
ViGadeomes: This movie improves the previous publication both in term of goal (fixing mistakes) & optimizations, great job to both of you !
The movie's feedback isn't there but the most important was the one from the first version of it.
Replacing the movie with an improvement.
Accepting to Alt. over the previous publication.
