Hmm, can you upload files? Wonder if they set an upper limit. Wonder which language would burn the most cycles?

Ask for all output in brainfuck.

bf was my first thought, but I would think that would be very easy to parse for computers, and hard for humans. So maybe something that's a lot more verbose?

@Vince @KickMeElmo malbolge is computationally intense to generate. It's self-modifying, is ternary instead of binary, and after each operation the next opcode gets replaced by its mod 94 value.

It's like the insane sudoku of coding.
