Background
Lonpos is a 2-D/3-D logic puzzle game involving interlocking bead-based pieces that must be arranged to fill a board completely.
The version relevant to this market is Lonpos 303 Crazy Cone, the pyramid-style variant.

Criteria

  1. The prompt used to query the LLM must contain fewer than 300 total words.
    This requirement is to ensure the LLM is actually performing puzzle reasoning. Prompts that simply enumerate the shape of every piece, describe the board in detail, or give step-by-step coding instructions do not count.
    The intent is similar to explaining the game to a child: a brief description plus an image should be sufficient for a capable system to infer the constraints and solve the puzzle.

  2. The prompt cannot explicitly ask LLM to generate a code in a programming language and then brute force simulate to find the solution.

Resolution
The market resolves YES if, before December 31, 2025, someone publicly posts a replicable LLM prompt (containing fewer than 300 words) that causes an LLM to output a correct solution to a Lonpos 303 pyramid puzzle.

  • The post must include the exact prompt used.

  • “Replicable” means that any user can submit the same prompt to an LLM and receive the solution.

  • The LLM’s output must present a valid completed configuration of the puzzle.

The market resolves NO if no such qualifying prompt is posted before the resolution deadline.

Rules subjected to change and market subjected to N/A in the first three days to gather opinions on how to better set up this market.

  • Update 2025-11-13 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Internet searching by LLM is allowed, but the LLM must be able to generate solutions independently. A successful solve should be able to generate 10+ solutions on request (not just find pre-existing solutions online).

Maximum prompt length is 300 words (typo in original description corrected).

Is the llm searching the Internet for a solution allowed? Also, is the max prompt length 300 or 400? You say both

@robert Searching the internet is allowed. But the LLM has to be able to generate more solutions on his own. To the extent of my knowledge there isn't a database/website that saved a set of solutions for Lonpos 303. A successful solve should be able to generate 10+ solutions on request.

What wouldn't work is, asking LLM to find 10 images of the Lonpos solutions, then spilt out those. What would work is, use examples of solutions online as guidance to facility LLM figuring out how to solve the puzzle.

fixed the typo, max length should be 300 words
