You don't need a space after the # if it is followed by an open or
closed square bracket:
ask #[ ...
...prin #]
(would save a byte in the latter case..)
One more space saving, if you can make an assumption about the first
iteration:
while[l >= 2][prin pick{-=B7}odd? l l: l / 2]prin{ }]
could be
until[prin pick{-=B7}odd? l 2 > l: l / 2]prin #]
(I'm not sure what =B7 is, that's the way it comes out in my mail box)
