I havent' been paying that close attention to the actual details of the circuits the last couple of days, but from the small description at the top of the stats page it seems like we keep evaulating the same circuit over and over. Are we testings some parameters? are we gettings stuck somewhere and need to reset, or am i missing something?

Hi Rathaman, it is true the description hasn't changed for ages. Before a couple of days ago the circuit was been tested under a maximum of 2 simultaneous faults, hence the latest circuit in the Hall of Fame. Now its been tested with up to 4 simult. faults which will make this run a bit slower. However there are no conventional design rules to make such robust circuits. So any improvements on the current best will be very exciting indeed! All these circuits are being evolved under stricter assumptions than conventional circuits too making them more useful and harder to design.
