The subject says it all. As I don't want to see an incresed amount of this
sort of articles, but there is addmitedly a readership for it, how about
"comp.lang.c-puzzles".

One other proposual: Clearly mark such things as "Puzzle" in the subject
line, so that it is easier to filter it out (for those who don't want to
see it).

No, I don't think you can stop these things by showing a solution that can't
be beaten.
