[15:12] Just unlucky, you are probably trying to be hasty putting it back together..?

[18:26] And now the whole world knows about it... I guess there is going to be a new hype in virus-writer-land :) [18:47] Hmm, lots of scanners on the hill right now [19:57] Join: Fluffy joined #corewars [19:57] :) [19:58] *yawn* [19:58] i feel like crap [19:59] Any special reason for that? [20:00] Tired. We really f*ed the last ET-match. Pill was taken only a minute ago. [20:00] and i need to wait ~2hours.. [20:01] So i can get cheap radeon from local ebay-clone [20:03] I have window open but theres no cold air coming in (?!) [20:03] How about taking a short walk? [20:04] There should be plenty of cold air outside ;-) [20:04] i dont feel like walking [20:05] atleast gridlock remembers what level i was left in yesterday [20:28] MSG: [20:36] ah, now i know what went wrong with static's optimaxing yesterday [20:37] (!100-7900) [20:41] gotta boot [20:41] MSG: [20:44] Join: Mizcu joined #corewars [20:55] ugh, finally [20:55] 141 from wilfiz, without any optimaxing [21:00] 129 against fsh94nop0.3 [21:21] nice, and what is it? [21:21] s/i, p/s, ...? [21:21] s/bi [21:22] no dclear [21:23] The day has come :-( [21:23] HFB is dead :-( [21:23] * Fluffy cries like a baby ... [21:24] my switch is dead too.. [21:24] * bvowk cries too [21:25] how many ports does ... err ... did it have? [21:25] er.. [21:25] either 120 or 140ish [21:25] hopefully this spare power supply will fix it [21:29] good luck [21:32] Join: Roy joined #corewars [21:32] R.I.P. HFB.. [21:33] I tried to save it a couple more challenges by killing my clone of it [21:33] BUAHAH.. err.. [21:33] Didn't help (enough) but hey, it survived longer then most reconed [21:33] (after hanging 20th for so long) [21:34] Age 222, nice when you think you where certain it didn't become 200+ [21:34] Especially after my best warrior before HFB survived only 19 challenges [21:35] Heh, it doesn't say much, my first warriors became very old, and now the last couple just keep falling off at age 1-50 [21:35] Except Hulla en Eccentric, but they are just old bastards on a slow decline [21:36] Maybe it is time to bet, whether HullabaTwo will become +1000 or not :-) [21:37] I don't think, that Eccentric will, but HullabaTwo seems to have it [21:37] No.. its not as powerfull as it was... maybe the new version might be somewhat better but also not strong enough to top the first two/three [21:38] Hey, I don't that look. You are about to replace HullabaTwo by Hulla3 [21:38] But since a long time, we have a different king!! (if someone dats the hill) [21:38] No I'm not going to replace it this time... [21:39] hmm ... good [21:39] 31.95% wins, 30.48% losses, 37.57% ties. Will be better after night of optimaxing ]:) [21:39] Mizcu: Send a test challenge to the hill :-) [21:39] Hmm, they are having this contest: a Ipod Nano every hour for two months here in Holland... [21:39] ? [21:40] MSG: Read error: Connection reset by peer [21:40] Join: Roy joined #corewars [21:40] back.. [21:41] I've got a code from the potato chips, and you have to fill it in on a website..and every hour they give away a ipod [21:42] So I guess I have to set my alarm clock and fill it in on a quiet hour.. [21:42] How about writing a script to do that? [21:42] I only have one code (yet) have to eat more chips! [21:43] why not save the money and buy an ipod? [21:43] That way you'd get one for sure ;-) [21:44] Err, I just fill in a code on a website, my mom eats and buys the chips :-P [21:44] hmm [21:44] * Roy isn't going to waste money! [21:45] Not on a ipod anyway.. [21:57] Loook, a new king, hail to mr. Gunnell [22:02] hm [22:02] Buying potato chips isn't wasting money! [22:03] Buying them for winning a ipod is.. [22:06] Hehee, the ebay-clone radeon has top of 65e. New costs 77e [22:06] I guess id better sell my old crap and by new one from store [22:07] Hrm, this prime-finding business is for some odd reason fun, I'm not doing anything, it isn't even intresting to watch, and I haven't found anything big enough to enter the top 5000 even... but still its fun :-) I recomment doing it too [22:09] JM had a nice idea to start a corewar-prime-search-group, and just divide ranges, and look for 2667/5334 etc numbers [22:11] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [22:17] Roy: What kind of prime numbers are you looking for? [22:18] Proth prime, just like JM has been doing for years [22:18] and what software are you using? [22:18] any URL? [22:19] First I used Proth.exe (easy to set up) now I use a combo of NewPGen and LLR (google it > easy) [22:26] Join: Fluff1 joined #corewars [22:26] Join: datagram joined #corewars [22:27] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [22:27] Nick Change: Fluff1 changed nick to Fluffy [23:01] lowest topscore 131 [23:01] highest undisclose [23:01] d [23:01] :) [23:05] Join: Nenad joined #corewars [23:05] Hi [23:05] Hi Nenad :) [23:05] hi [23:06] Jens: sorry to see that harmless beast dead. I'm sure you'll make another soon [23:06] I'm already working on it :) [23:07] I've done some small changes to KL without optimaxing and it scores +9 against 94nop fsh now [23:07] But at least I've increased the age of my oldest warrior by a factor of 10 :) [23:07] :) [23:08] I didn't have much time for redcoding, but I think I'll try making a couple of warriors in the next few days [23:08] How far are you with your oneshot-tutorial? [23:09] it was stagnant for about a month [23:09] but it won't take too long once I find the time [23:09] a day or two is enough if I have nothing else to do [23:09] but that is rarely the case [23:10] besides, I feel like making some cds or scn at the moment [23:10] :) [23:10] * Fluffy has just send another test to 94nop :) [23:10] and I'm also very satisfied with my two pws on the hill [23:11] + CrashAndBurn became my first 94nophof sbi [23:12] Nenad, how many points did CAB get from optimax? [23:12] wait a sec... [23:12] only 144,17 [23:12] "only" [23:12] Elven king got 145 or 146 if i remember right [23:13] well, Lavos had 150, but is already dead [23:13] Nenad: against fsh94nop-0.2, right? Not ..-0.3? [23:13] yes [23:13] didn't have the time to rerun all the tests [23:14] I'll do that gradualy in the next couple of days [23:14] KL scores good 146,5 now and is still unoptimaxed :) [23:14] hmm ... maybe it is time to try sth. new instead of trying variations of HFB [23:15] The last test was HFB with a stone, which throws a-imps [23:16] Static-reappear or whatever wont make it to 'nop.. [23:16] It needs d-clear or some other twist [23:18] This is frustrating. I want to have a new warrior on 94nop, but I also want to continue to work on PyCorewar-0.1.1 [23:19] * Fluffy should clone himself several times [23:19] so, ask your evil twin-brother to do a part of the job [23:20] Apart from the fact, that my brother isn't evil, he isn't interested in computers [23:20] ;-) [23:20] I've benchmarked HFB against the new fsh94nop-0.3. It's score dropped from 143.7 to 138.7 :-( [23:20] (compared to version 0.2) [23:20] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [23:20] that just makes him even more eveil [23:21] Mizcu: hehe [23:21] Hmm, what kind of imp-pump can run on 5 processes...? [23:21] * Roy is bad at making si's.. [23:21] But those nasty scanners need a beating [23:21] Roy: Obviouly a 5-process-imp-pump [23:21] *obviously [23:21] But where to find one :) [23:22] Near a 4-process-imp-pump [23:22] If you've found a 6-process-imp-pump you've gone too far ;-) [23:22] Isn't that obvious, Roy? [23:22] * Fluffy needs to give stupid answers now that HFB is dead [23:23] You just make another warrior :-P [23:23] hmm ... [23:23] * Roy dives into the CW library near the 4 and 6 p pumps.. [23:24] I'm already working on a new warrior. So far I've got: [23:24] ;redcode-94nop verbose [23:24] ;name test [23:24] ;author Jens Gutzeit [23:24] ;assert CORESIZE == 8000 [23:24] ORG boot [23:24] boot [23:24] END [23:24] send it send it! [23:25] Quite impressive, isn't it? [23:25] btw. Hi nenad, merry christmas! [23:25] and a happy new year :) [23:25] ? [23:25] Roy, isn't that a little bit late or way too early? [23:25] haven't spoken him for a while :-) [23:25] and I got a new year-email, so I had to thank him for that [23:25] Nenad: Now, that Roy talks about xmas. Thanks for your email :-) [23:25] thanks. Happy NY and Christmas to you, too :) [23:26] * Fluffy starts to cry again [23:26] How can you be so happy, if HFB just dies [23:26] *died [23:27] (maybe thats the reason why) [23:27] Nenad: You can send now all your warriors with a-imps :-) [23:27] the beast is gone :P [23:28] :) [23:31] damn this is hard (gridlock lvl 33) [23:33] * Fluffy waves [23:34] Part: Fluffy left #corewars [23:35] * Nenad waves to Fluffy [23:35] hmm... I wonder if I can make a good cds tonight... maybe to use the new fsh for the first time... [23:35] Lux as basis ;-) [23:36] We should publish that warrior...! [23:36] yes. I was about to suggest that, [23:36] :) [23:36] And prove we thought of it before Grendel ;-) [23:36] I'll send it to C.Birk tomorrow [23:36] Well Nenad, go ahead, post it on r.g.c too, lets keep it active :) [23:36] :) [23:39] Hrm, good thing we have a new fsh, I have a warrior ready now with 14 constants that are worth optimising... [23:40] 14? kinda excessive.. [23:40] Actually, they have to be perfectly optimised to work..! [23:40] dualpaper? [23:40] No, something unseen before :) [23:40] SDN variant.. [23:40] Well, something like that [23:41] I already had the source to SDN for months, and I even made my own version from Fizmo's comments, without seeing the code, when I send it to him he send me SDN :) [23:41] But that was when SDN was still on the hill [23:42] 340 moves and 2 restarts.. [23:43] MSG: [23:45] Join: Mizcu joined #corewars [23:46] damn optimax doesnt like quitting with ^C [23:47] Damn, now I have to choose, optimise the new warrior tonight or searching primes [23:47] heh, lot of damning :) [23:47] No, it doesn't... DPMI errors or something [23:47] I just open another dos-box, works fine for me :) [23:47] ... [23:49] When I let optimax crash with ^C that happens.. :-) [23:49] Ok, time for bed, work tomorrow sigh blegh [23:49] The work is great, but the getting-out-of-bed-thing isn't [23:49] * Roy waves [23:49] MSG: [23:50] * Nenad waves [23:50] MSG: [23:55] MSG:
