✅ Approved the contribution. Comment: The game is entertaining! I love that this game is easy to learn and hard to master. If someone is unfamiliar with specific algorithms, he can create greedy algorithms and still have fun. And the last league creates so many possible strategies :D

✅ Approved the contribution. Comment: I played the four leagues. I like this game because - easy to begin - probably difficult to be great - i like the gargoyle I do not know enough about how these games are made on codingame. Is it possible to add additional leagues after launch? I think this game should have more than one league for the final rule set. There will be a big skill gap. Thank you for the fun game.

There is half-develped league where the Santas randomly drop bombs. When getting to close to a bomb you cannot gather presents for a certain number of turns. Shooting bomb means inst-explosion in larger radius. Also, initially shooting fireballs gave negative points not positive (so denial-purpose only)

New Rule * Please change "from the distance" to "from a distance". Rules - Game Area * Please change "coordinate" to "coordinates". Rules - Gargoyle * Please add "is" after "one turn". Rules - Presents * Please change "increase the speed" to "increases the speed". * Please change "The gargoyle" to "A gargoyle". Rules - Fireballs * Please change "from the distance" to "from a distance". Initialization Input * Please change "Linia" to "Line". Input for One Game Turn * Please change "availabe" to "available" (twice). Stub * Is it possible to set different comments in the default codes for different leagues? The description of cooldown contains a spoiler that fireballs will be available, and the output section also shows "FIREBALL id [message]" as a possible output. But fireballs won't be available until later leagues. Thanks.

Again, you are wonderful thank you. The translation was done in a hurry, so lot of stuff inside, sorry. I've checked official games and didn't see different stubs, other than plain text note such as: `in the first league: BREW <id> | WAIT; later: BREW <id> | CAST <id> [<times>] | LEARN <id> | REST | WAIT` Anyway, for most players what matters is getting to the final league fast, rather than steb by step anticipation, so "spoiler" is somewhat an overstatement. I mean yeas I would prefer if this would be possible, but as it is now, I suppose ist OK.

Nice! Please post the Translation. It isn't as simple as it appears at first. Hope to see this as a multi. My current bot is just greedy and uses something like PID. It is pretty dumb. I tried out both League 1 and 2. Haven't tried fireballs yet.

Sorry for the statement in Polish, but the game was prepared for the Santa's Day event for our high schoolers. I will add English statement as the main ones later. Game is simple, just google-translate rules and you will be ok if you're interested.
