It feels like a missed opportunity to not show each pixel's worksheet: It would be cool if you could click on each pixel, and it opens a PDF scan of that persons calculations.

Sadly you can’t do that on a site without having people post very inappropriate things, so it would require a human moderator, which I speculate makes it unlikely to happen.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It can be done. To submit a pixel you have to take a photo proof of your calculations on paper, it’s already “moderated”

Interesting, how come there are obviously incorrect pixels ?.

Think they're just people making math mistakes (one of the reasons why we don't usually implement shaders by having people compute values by hand).

If you compare them to nearby "correct" pixels, they usually just have one of the three RGB values that are sharply different.

the moderators are checking that the pixel was computed by hand, not that it's correct
