Nov 8, 2015 at 5:06 comment added Faraz Masroor @Dennis well I'm not really the guy to make a decision like this but I would love to see what you have.
Nov 8, 2015 at 5:01 comment added Dennis I'd rather have a final decision before I post my answer. There's no point in writing it up if it'll just get downvoted. (I am sitting on a 29-byte solution using SMBF.)
Nov 8, 2015 at 4:56 comment added Faraz Masroor @Dennis let's let the community decide with votes.
Nov 8, 2015 at 4:34 comment added Dennis Even after reading the meta discussion you linked to, I am unsure what exactly is acceptable as quine. For example, would using SMBF (which starts with its source code in the data array) be acceptable?

Nov 7, 2015 at 21:27 comment added Faraz Masroor The program's don't have to even be valid in the other languages, as long as they're quines in the correct labguage!
Nov 7, 2015 at 21:19 comment added SuperJedi224 @ETHproductions what if we used "Print all those programs in <language>, and those only, which do not exclusively print themselves." That would avoid Russell's paradox. Though I suppose it would still run into problems with the Halting Problem, depending on your choice of language.

Nov 7, 2015 at 19:02 comment added Faraz Masroor When put into a compiler it doesn't output its source code. It can run or throw an error or not compile or output something else or nothing, but as long as it doesn't output its source code.
Nov 7, 2015 at 18:58 comment added LegionMammal978 Does "not a quine" mean "do anything" or "at least run"?
Nov 7, 2015 at 18:26 comment added Faraz Masroor That's something that I didn't think of before. I'm inclined to let them slide because then you have to worry about printing that out AND having to make sure language C has the same comment syntax or something but I'm flexible.
