Well, the core gameplay is here.
I'm going to spend Sunday polishing it up. (The competition ends in the evening)
If anyone wants to hack on it feel free these can be team efforts. :)

I'll attach the LISP file.
In the end, a lot of stuff had to end up on the cutting room floor to make the deadline. 

Care and feeding of this program:
1. Start by loading RING.LISP (compile if you wish, but it's FAST-ENOUGH-P).
2. To kickoff the program type (HUNGARIAN.RINGS) from an Interlisp Exec.
3. You will be prompted to place 2 windows. One is the live puzzle and the other is a card with the solution painted to it.
4. To rotate the rings, click inside the ring. Left mouse: Rotate Left, Right mouse: Rotate Right.

5. For the sake of time I didn't do the whole menubar right click computation. I just lazily mapped the usual window button to the middle mouse.
6. There are a lot of "for the sake of time" things that didn't make it in.

BUT I have something presentable with a day of polish. Yet.

Thoughts welcome. This is rushed code and a lot had to be pushed to the last hour, separating out the essentials from the "nice to haves".

10 days to make a game is rougher than it seems. Everything in my case was done from scratch so testing gobbled up a lot of time. 

Anyway, yes the rough prototype I'll polish then submit:

It looks really nice and works well, including the mouse gestures. There's an extra period in the hint "Middle click for menu.."

Thanks Paolo!
I ended up revising the code and commenting the various parts.
Fixed the mentioned typo.

Here it is in the queue of entries.
