ehm. well that's a bit of pressure on me ;p I don't know why you became disinterested in the first place, but I don't have a lot to show you either way. I've seen some really cool things made by Powsi and Don, and even properenglish and koala, and I have some of my own ideas but not a lot to show off for you at this time. Hah.
Not sure how up to date you are anyway, but if you had reason for leaving I don't know it. I think there's still a lot of innovating left to be done using comparators, so the subject never seems boring to me. I've actually learned quite a bit even since joining this server relatively recently. I like to innovate, not build others' designs, so that leaves my plot without a lot on it just yet.
I'd been chasing the dragon for a while on my own server trying to get hex data lines running at better than 2 tick resolution or maybe up to 16+ bps, but I think you and some others have probably exhausted fitting reliable analog bits into a stream any denser than one hex 'nibble' (4bits) per 2 redstone ticks pulse. I am not sure all the tricks have been found. I'm also interested in user-friendly interfaces, so that regular non tech users can use our machines and not have to be the engineers, but still be able to use it ; afforded ease of use and intuitive controls or controls that mimic real-world machines; and compacting stuff .
