[09:13] Hello [09:13] How are the entries coming [09:13] Hi datagram [09:14] Haven't started yet. [09:14] datagram: you should be more specific with the deadline :) [09:14] Probably [09:15] Convert the date for me and I'll put it up : ) [09:16] 00:00 UTC [09:19] Updated [09:19] :) [09:19] damn, I should said sth. like 0:17 Mars local time (noth pole) [09:20] Heh, well what will 00:00 UTC be for PST? [09:21] I figure it will be weird no matter how I define it, like because it will be 8-9 hours different for USA/europe so one will ahve it at a weird time [09:26] datagram: I guess, that PST isn't Pakistan Standard Time, but Pacific ST, which is UTC -7 or -8 depending on daylight saving [09:26] I see [09:26] What is the shortest nano warrior? [09:26] 4? [09:27] (That is, effective nano warrior) [09:27] and imp [09:27] 1 instruction [09:27] Name? [09:27] Imp [09:28] Are we talking about mov 0, 1 or something else? [09:28] yes [09:28] ...and that's effective? [09:28] mov.i # x, $ 1 [09:29] Better than any other 1-insn-warrior [09:29] Hmm [09:30] But if you are talking about competitive on the nano-hill, I'd say the limit is >= 3 [09:30] There are some good 4-insn-warriors [09:31] datagram: Are you planning to evolve sth. for nano? [09:34] I don't know if evolve is a good word for it [09:35] But I suppose so [09:35] Good luck :) [09:35] I haven't written a warrior in many moons... [09:35] So yeah [09:39] Hehe, datagram...are you thinking what I'm thinking? [09:40] Roy, I'm pretty sure all my thoughts are worse then yours, but sure : ) [09:40] Close enough [09:41] Well, I don't have any idea in that area, but I was thinking about starting of even smaller then nano [09:41] But eliminating would also be a nice way [09:41] Doesn't matter what you eliminate [09:41] No, not really [09:41] Even if you take out 99.9999%...you still don't have time [09:41] :( [09:42] it just drops it one exponent [09:42] so you go from like 10^30 to...10^29 [09:42] (at 00.01% of total) [09:43] -P against all other possible warriors at all locations :P [09:43] My friend helpfully pointed out that if you have a billion friends you can drop that to 10^28 : ) [09:43] And if those friends have a billion friend!

[15:31] I really need to sit down and do some more studying / thinking, but my warriors seem to be getting better. [15:56] any ideas for your next attempt? [15:56] written a paper yet? [15:56] they're kinda fun :) [16:02] I was thinking about a scanner. But maybe a paper. [16:06] I can't write redcode myself.. so scanners are little beyond my redcode ability.. [16:06] I can halfass them a little, but my efforts are feeble and underpowered compared to the stuff the others do.. [16:08] Can't write redcode? [16:08] nope.. [16:08] I evolve [16:09] I try to avoid actually learning redcode so I don't taint the evolver [16:09] heh [16:09] bvowk, just looks at his machine and goes "you figure it out" [16:09] Ah. But don't you need to understand redcode in order to build the genetic algorithm. [16:10] I guess not, you just need to know the rules and the instructions. [16:11] pretty much [16:11] I've picked up enough now to recognise most of the basic warriors.. [17:12] Join: Mizcu joined #corewars [17:45] Join: Core29 joined #corewars [18:06] ! [18:07] !?

[18:17] I'm doing nothing of interest, fluffy announced that pycorewar would be done in 2015 [18:18] fock, i got my entering-tests next Monday, not much time for the tourney [18:18] :P [18:18] good luck then ;) [18:18] fiveop professed a love for sausage yesterday [18:18] * bvowk hides [18:19] I prefere them to steaks [18:19] miz: i screwed math last week, so way enough time for the tourney this week ;) [18:20] * bvowk had steak for breakfast [18:20] o.O healthy way to start the day ;) [18:21] Part: elkauka left #corewars [18:21] MSG: Quit: humhum [18:22] it was pretty healthy.. nice lean steak :) [18:23] some eggs [18:35] MSG: [18:37] Join: fiveop joined #corewars [18:37] whatcha up to today fiveop? [18:38] hm [18:38] was at uni up till now [18:38] so I'm up to some relaxing :P [18:42] sounds good. [18:43] first I'll download the newest combat video captures of my DAoC Guild [18:46] DAoC? [18:48] Dark Age of Camelot [18:48] an MMO [18:48] I don't play anymore since I started at uni [18:48] but I watch the vid caps ;) [18:49] thats likely why you're still at uni :) [18:49] ;) [18:50] Such MMO's take up huge amounts of time [18:50] In my guild most play 4-6 evenings a week (from around 20 till 24 o'clock) [18:50] and that's not much in comparsion to other players [18:51] yow. [18:51] I've never seen what the draw is, because there's really no end [18:51] I mean, I can put in time on a nethack game, cause I know there's a definate end.. [18:51] but having to pay and play indefinately just doesn't appeal to me [18:52] My guild has found a nice goal they play for [18:52] and that's mostly fun [18:53] their characters reached the high end of equipment and they just play every evening to meet opposing groups (a normal group consists of eight members) [18:53] and that's all :) [18:54] meh.. [18:54] still doesn't sound like fun to me. [18:54] maybe I'm too old [18:56] It's about playing in a group and beating the others :P [18:56] that can be fun, especially with the right people [18:57] unfortunatly most people that play these game aren't the right [18:59] so [19:01] what to do now [19:07] my emacs encodes the files with utf-8 ...

[21:56] s/rpunds/rounds/ [22:38] heath, 250 [22:58] datagram: Interesting, When I test a battle myself, say against DatSmith v0.2 and LeapFrog v0.2, I get much different results then the hill does. [23:52] the hill runs all warriors vs each other [23:56] At the same time? [23:57] its round robin [23:57] click your warrior and look at its vs the other statistics and compare [23:59] datagram: That is what I mean. The numbers that it gives for some battles are very different from the ones I run myself. [23:59] send me both warriors [23:59]
