768 is the number of bytes in saveSScreen, plotSScreen, and appBackUpScreen. Basically, it's the number of bytes needed to represent the screen :)

Got it. Knowing xkcd, that was probably on purpose. :P

Heh. For me it's actually Axe that takes longer to compile than any of my computer scripts O.o

Back to the topic: Some new ones are still pretty good, like 890.

Wait--how'd you get Axe to compile slowly?

Enough code (8 KB) and enough subroutines (21). Axe compiles Contra in seven seconds.

313 is too familiar, especially the alt text.
I like 315 and 316, too.
325 seems like something I would do, if I had an eBay account. (And an unlimited supply of bobcats)
347's alt text is something else.
And I swear somebody's gonna make 416 a reality.
