[09:40] bvowk: http://www.pibot.com/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=PIBOT+Conference+Series :] [10:32] Hi [10:49] * asw waves to all.

[14:35] Nice to see you, brx. It's been a while [14:36] yes, I lost my internet connection. [14:36] And it took you that long to get a new one? [14:38] that is correct :) [14:38] I also used the time to gain weight [14:38] Yes, I know that. It is hard to avoid during xmas [14:38] well intentionally I gained a lot. [14:39] about 13kg now [14:39] err [14:39] what for? [14:39] I am not entirely sure. an intermediary goal until I take up my studies.

[17:03] Hi Jens [17:04] It seems, that I've forgotten how hard it is to find a good paper :-( [17:04] :-( [17:04] Even for HFB I've needed a lot of tries [17:10] Nice name Jens [17:12] The circle contest is over. Congrats bvowk, pvk + one other person [17:13] Looks like Francois was waiting until last minute, but it doesn't seem to have done much good [17:14] I think I'm going to name a really good warrior after he who should not be named, then no-one will be allowed to take about the warrior here :-) [17:14] Who has won the circle contest? [17:15] http://www.recmath.org/contest/standings.php [17:15] Metcalf: Why not mention he-who-must-not-be-named's name here? [17:16] I have no idea [17:16] bvowk: Congrats to place 3 :-) [17:16] * Metcalf thinks he-who-must-not-be-named is a fugitive. (or Lord Voldemort) [17:16] hehe [17:17] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voldemort [17:17] At least we are save from HWMNBN .... except of course bvowk [17:18] hmm ... I think, they got sth. wrong in this page [17:18] Why? [17:19] The name of HWMNBN isn't "Tom Riddle", but ... [17:19] Tom Riddle is correct [17:19] I can't tell you or bvowk will kill me again for mentioning HWMNBN's name [17:20] bvowk: Are you there? [17:21] BVOWK, ARE YOU THERE? [17:21] * Fluffy kicks bvowk [17:21] (Haven't done this for a long time :-) [17:21] It might wake him [17:22] * Fluffy kicks bvowk again [17:23] hmm ... he's probably dead [17:24] Kick again, just to check ;-) [17:24] * Fluffy kicks bvowk again, because kicked dead people isn't prohibited by current law [17:24] Join: Nenad joined #corewars [17:24] *kicked->kicking [17:24] Hi Nenad [17:24] Hi [17:24] Hi Nenad [17:25] Jens: it seems that you're trying to make another monster-paper [17:25] any progress? [17:25] Okay, bvowk seems to be dead. Lets break open his briefcase to see if there are any Corewar secrets hidden within [17:25] No, let's take his computers [17:25] :) [17:26] corewar secrets or not, taking bvowks computers sounds like a good ide :) [17:26] He doesn't need them any longer and I think, that we might have good uses for them [17:26] Would either of you like to join the search for Corewar primes? [17:26] define : search for corewar primes [17:27] 1143*2^337054+1 and 3039*2^249595+1 [17:27] ? [17:27] Is 337054 special in any way? [17:27] number*2^n + 1? [17:27] 1143 and 3039 is ok [17:28] *are [17:28] Both Proth primes within the largest 5000 known [17:28] How long does it took to find these numbers? [17:28] Proth prime = K *2^N+1 [17:28] *did it take [17:28] sounds interesting... [17:28] what can we do? [17:29] share some of our CPU time, I suppose :) [17:29] Hmmm... I have found two so far this year using two machines. 1.4GHz and 2.9GHz [17:29] I've got 1.6GHz computer [17:30] You'd probably need to have it running for a month to find one. [17:30] Then it seems, that I need a new computer [17:30] 2x500 MHz isn't any longer that much :( [17:30] :-/ [17:30] Fluffy: it's fast enough for Corewar, that's all that matters [17:31] :) [17:31] PyCorewar is still at 9.3 MIPS :-( [17:31] btw, did you see how my pws did at Koenigstuhl? It was a very pleasant suprise... [17:31] *surprise [17:32] Dofa? [17:32] Yes :-) [17:32] :) [17:32] I've sent some other warriors, too [17:32] It was about time to read a new name in the top-3 :) [17:33] KrynaLamiya should appear at Koenigstuhl in a few hours, I suppose [17:33] GodsOfDestiny and LuckyMisfortune, as well [17:33] and I'll submit Lavos and a few others in a couple of days [17:33] Thanks for the card Nenad [17:34] If we keep on sending that many new warriors, fsh94nop-0.3 will out of date in a few days [17:34] (many and good) [17:34] Jens: that is the general idea :) [17:34] Fizmo: Where is fsh94nop-0.3 ;-) [17:34] err -0.4 [17:34] I'm in the process of making fshtourney [17:35] 45 warriors so far... I'll be satisfied with 60 [17:35] tourney = 94t setting [17:35] I'm doing well there, but I'd like to start optimizing my warriors to perform even better in the future :) [17:36] Damn! I must hurry up to finish PyCorewar-0.1.1 . After that I can start to evolve for '94nop [17:36] JM: no need to thank for the card. I hope you enjoyed it. [17:37] Jens: then I'll be the only one without the evolver :( It seems that I'll have to do it this summer... [17:38] * Metcalf has no evolver [17:38] * Metcalf has no optimizer [17:38] * Metcalf has no warriors on the hills :-( [17:38] No need to hurry ... for '88 I haven't evolved any good warriors so far [17:38] it has become difficult to make good warriors without optimization tools [17:38] scanners, no problem - but papers, pws, ... [17:41] Maybe I should incorporate optimax' syntax for optimizing warriors into PyCorewar [17:42] :-) [17:42] The new parse is almost ready and it shouldn't be a big problems to do that [17:42] *parser [17:44] :-( [17:44] It is a big problem :-( [17:44] why? [17:44] The parser doesn't create the same output as pMARS [17:45] (yet another bug) [17:45] But at least it seems to unroll FOR/ROFs now properly [17:46] hmm ... even for HFB it doesn't produce the same output [17:46] * Fluffy kicks his computer! [17:47] No, that doesn't work either [17:49] Time to go [17:49] * Fluffy waves [17:49] Part: Fluffy left #corewars [17:49] * Nenad waves [17:50] * Metcalf waves [17:52] I think that I'll try making a good pspacer for the draft hill... [17:52] It is about time I did the same [17:52] My scanners aren't any use on there [17:53] I'm surprised you don't have a scanner at 94nop [17:54] MagicSnap is a paper, right? [17:54] Yes, with imps [17:54] I needed to get back on the hill in a hurry [18:02] * Nenad waves [18:02] * Metcalf waves [18:21] MSG: [18:58] Join: Mizcu joined #corewars [19:49] Join: datagram joined #corewars [19:51] Hi [20:17] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [20:17] * Metcalf waves [20:17] MSG: Quit: mov.i #1,1 [20:22] Join: datagram joined #corewars [21:09] blerch. no ruby xlib bindings in debian and the two libs I could find were a) deprecated and b) deprecated and documented in japanese only. debugging the japanese one took an hour, [21:20] Join: Metcalf joined #corewars [21:20] Hi [21:20] hi [21:21] Join: OoS joined #corewars [21:21] Part: OoS left #corewars [21:21] Join: OoS joined #corewars [21:21] The original strategy lines for Blacken: [21:21] ;strategy The stone from Defender [21:21] ;strategy Added a QScan [21:24] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [21:26] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [23:45] MSG: Quit: humhum
