Run it past the devs so they don't want to kill anyone for trying this.
Good luck with the inclusion limit (which I believe is currently 2 MB). If you can squeeze it in, note that due to caching, it won't randomize unless you constantly purge it.
I wonder if it's possible to implement the Towers of Hanoi in template code. Or Emacs. Or a wiki bot.
All of the above, I believe, if you disable the inclusion limit (and don't mind exorbitant CPU/memory usage). Rumor has it that templates have been proven Turing-complete.
