[18:03] Just been playing with a new combo on nano [18:03] Digital Warlord [18:06] and? [18:06] Nice second place [18:06] And I like it ;-) for obvious reasons [18:06] Hmmm... points to ftrttt? [18:06] damn! [18:06] I'm down to 9 warriors [18:07] and you're in second ;) [18:07] ftrttt EQU ftrttr [18:07] and you're up to 11 warriors.. [18:07] hrm. [18:07] I don't think I approve! [18:07] I didn't think many of your warriors would last long ;-) [18:08] Hehe, my new idea is that having one or two warriors is probably better then evolving a good warrior and submitting 4/5 variations of it [18:09] Then the challenges will soon find a weak spot and gain a lot of points against you, and if you only have one warrior with that weak spot you can't abuse it as good [18:09] So you stay alive longer (?) [18:10] Three of your warriors begin with 8c09fc1a [18:10] yeah [18:10] they've got the same form [18:10] different mods and oprands tho [18:11] Don't say too much, else it would be too easy to decompile them and use them in a evolver ;-) [18:11] Has fluffy given any clues about Red Moon's form? [18:12] roy: didn't you read how to tell the exact contents of my warriors from the names? [18:13] Well, I only saw you mentioning the hashcode once [18:13] imp paper -> pimp rape [18:17] bvowk: did you see the big round robin results? [18:18] Well, not as big as 50,000 [18:19] no.. [18:20] http://corewar.co.uk/temp/results.txt [18:20] infinano plus approx 160 unpublished nano warriors [18:24] cool!

[19:30] hey [19:31] Hi Gnik :-) [19:31] Some of your anagrams have been solved :-P [19:32] hrm. [19:32] I intentionally picked short ones :) [19:33] :-) [19:33] I gave up sending papers to sal now [19:35] I don't find any good variants, so (as you noticed ;) I'm now giving oneshots and scanners a try [19:36] :-) [19:36] no new ideas tho, mainly stuff from nw #1 [19:36] gnik: nanoWarrior 2 will hopefully give you some new ideas [19:37] I'm really looking forward to reading it :) [19:38] Maybe I will contribute some (new) ideas to nanoWarrior #3! [19:38] I hope so [19:39] I just don't want to publish my only self written warrior that stays on the hill ;) [19:39] otherwise it would've been in nw #2 ... [19:40] Actually I don't think most of the stuff which will be in nw2 ought to be published! [19:40] I think Neo, sf and I should keep it all secret :-) [19:41] w00t [19:43] nah, i want to further elaborate some ideas first -> nw#3 :) [19:44] So what is the secret of the Red Moon ? [19:44] No idea [19:44] What's the secret of impossible? [19:44] :-P [19:47] its impossible to say [19:48] That is to reveal in future times and impossible to tell by now! [19:50] Any clue what Petro "I'm Old" Warrior [03] [19:50] and Foggy Maus (beta) [19:50] are ? [19:51] No :-( [19:51] They both seem to remain forever at the top of the hill [19:51] Nothing seems to beat Petro apart from Impossible [19:52] And I've checked back through hundreds of warriors which are no longer on the hill [19:53] (metcalf does his corewars homework!) [19:53] :-) [19:54] I really wonder why it is impossible to beat all warriors, damn ... [19:56] MSG: [19:57] Join: Fluffy joined #corewars [19:57] :) [19:57] Hi Fluffy [19:57] hi fluffer [19:57] hi fluffy [19:57] * Fluffy reduces bvowk's oxygen supply to zero [19:57] * Fluffy chops bvowk's dead body into tiny bits [19:58] * Fluffy lets the tiny bits rot till doomsday [19:58] ha ha! foolish human I run on computrons! [19:58] Hi John, gnik :) [19:58] bvowk: You should ask yourself, who is nano-koth and then be a little bit more silent ;-) [19:59] John: It seems that you have much work to do for updating the nano-HoF :) [19:59] Mentioning doomsday, it's now 5 minutes to midnight [20:00] I kept watching the moon for some time now, but it doesn't seem to set ;) [20:00] Fluffy: yeah, it gets out of date really quickly! [20:00] john: where? [20:00] http://www.thebulletin.org/ [20:00] I've been thinking maybe nano hof should be 250 or 500 ;) [20:00] gnik: Yes, but I like watching the moon. That's why the strategy line :) [20:01] gnik: But I'll soon change the naming scheme for my warriors ... again :) [20:02] fluffy: the moon needs to set, as it must rise again [20:02] John: http://qntm.org/destroy [20:02] Nanohof used to be an entry level of 50! [20:02] John: That's far more fun [20:02] John: I hope that you use some kind of script to update the nano-hof. [20:03] Here's an old one - http://corewar.co.uk/old/nanohof.txt [20:03] No, no script [20:03] It doesn't take long though [20:03] Fluffy: nice work btw (whatever it is)! [20:03] As long as you tell bvowk that I'm higher in the nano-hof than he's I'm satisfied [20:04] gnik: Red Moon? [20:04] Fluffy: yes! [20:04] gnik: Pure chance. My tiny generator did all the work. [20:05] What happened to "The MicroGP Corewars Collective" ? [20:05] No idea, maybe they are working now on an evolved 94nop-warrior :) [20:06] Fluffy: Does the code make sense to you ? [20:06] what do you mean? [20:07] Fluffy: Do you know why you're #1 :) [20:07] Fluffy: Or is it just fame you're interested in ;) [20:07] I think, that's hard to tell. I've probably hit a sweet spot. Nothing more [20:08] But apart from that there is nothing unusual about this warrior. [20:08] It is a simple mov/spl/mov/mov/djn [20:09] i.e. quickbombing into mad bomber ;) [20:09] I will never understand the nano hill! [20:09] What exactly do you want to understand? [20:10] Why it is not like scissors/stone/paper [20:11] 5 lines is too small to write a good scissors, paper or stone [20:11] Maybe because (for instance) papers don't have enough time to spread before the time is up? [20:11] at least normal papers [20:11] So we have to write the best we can and make some compromises [20:12] And I think that tiny/94nop are like nano, but we all (including) bvowk lack the computing power to generate such hightly sophisticated warriors like for nano. [20:13] mhmm I have to think about that and am sorry about having to leave... [20:14] But I still fear the day that bvowk seriously starts to evolve for 94nop (again) [20:14] gnik: No problem [20:14] * Fluffy waves to gnik [20:14] * bvowk doesn't understand the nano hill.. he just keeps throwing stuff until something sticks to the hill [20:14] * John waves [20:15] * bvowk waves [20:15] yeah, that is the right attitude, bvowk! [20:15] I'm very tempted to become a lunar lunatic, too! Watch out ;) [20:15] :) [20:15] MSG: Quit: I was using TinyIRC! Visit http://www.tinyirc.net/ for more information. [20:16] hey, I don't like your latest entry met [20:17] although fluffy isn't nanokoth anymore [20:18] :-) [20:19] hrm [20:20] John: If I remember correctly I've already used the name "Blue Moon" for nano :) [20:20] But it didn't get on :-P [20:20] So it's still available [20:20] My next warrior is going to be called Distant Moon [20:21] * Fluffy kicks John [20:21] LOOK AT THE HILL [20:21] Oh, you've made one called that [20:22] :) [20:22] Well it's not on yet, so the name's still available :-P [20:22] "Forgotten Moon" is already taken :) [20:23] I've sent some warriors which haven't appeared on the hill [20:23] yes, same for me :( [20:24] So the email will probably arrive at SAL sometime over the next 6 months [20:24] :( [20:24] That's one of bvowk's off! [20:24] ... and the queue is empty [20:26] bvowk: SAL! NOT! WORK! DO! SOMETHING! [20:26] * Fluffy angry [20:27] * John encourages Fluffy [20:27] * John cheers as Fluffy yells at bvowk! [20:27] Fortunately I'm not the Hulk ;-) [20:29] We killed SAL! [20:29] eh? [20:29] Now it seems to work again ... [20:30] Another of bvowk's warriors off! [20:30] heh [20:30] Good work, John! [20:30] * bvowk beats fluffy with a stick [20:31] Hmmm... stick is the equivalent of spl mov djn attack [20:31] are you sure its not the classical spl mov mov djn? [20:31] bvowk: I'll ignore your attacks as long as I'm higher in the nano-hof than you! [20:32] * John prepares mov sne add mov djn [20:32] Go on, Trypanosoma brucei seems to like them :) [20:32] "The server at sal.math.ualberta.ca is taking too long to respond." [20:33] yup [20:33] And I still haven't seen my "Lost Moon" on nano :( [20:33] hrm. [20:33] can you view the page? [20:34] at this moment: no [20:34] hrm. [20:34] I wonder. [20:34] Maybe Canada's "see cables" have been cut by a killer whale [20:35] ... or they've reverted to send IP packets by dove [20:36] If you put a dove into a rail gun, you might get a decent speed ;-) [20:36] I should patent that! [20:37] Any more submissions for nano before I grab the ages to update the HoF? [20:37] hrm. [20:37] I can't see anything wrong.. I'll look again shortly. [20:37] Maybe it isn't the sal-server but its internet connection [20:37] hmm ... now I can connect again without problems [20:39] Bvowk: can't you see anything wrong? [20:40] Now I can't connect to sal again :( [20:41] Join: Altair joined #corewars [20:41] But I can ping SAL without problems from here [20:41] Hi Altair [20:41] Bvowk: http://img120.imageshack.us/img120/1375/probwd1.jpg [20:42] Is that enough info to fix it? :-P [20:44] bvowk: No I can connect just fine to SAL [20:45] MSG: Ping timeout: 255 seconds [20:45] * John can't [20:46] yup, now I can't, too [20:46] Dove flew too far east [20:46] Hmm ... but do they have rail guns in Canada? [20:46] ;-) [20:46] If so, the dove(s) probably have met a wall or sth. [20:48] Now I can't connect to tantrix.com - it's spreading :-( [20:48] Skynet has started to take over the world ;) [20:48] Join: Altair joined #corewars [20:49] Hi again, Altair :) [20:53] John: I'll wait till tomorrow and see if my warriors appear on SAL. [20:53] I think I'll do the same [20:53] I think 2 or 3 went missing [20:53] MSG: Ping timeout: 255 seconds [20:54] yes, 2 of mine are missing, too [20:54] I'll update the nanohof a different day [20:55] ok, but thanks for doing the HoF [20:55] I always forget about that. It is nice to have it :) [20:55] It's no trouble :-) [20:56] I need to fill out a few of the missing strategies actually [20:56] And I've been thinking about moving the columns so the full warrior name fits it [20:56] yes, that would be a nice idea [20:57] I just used the same column spacing as all the HoF in the past have been [20:57] Why not add a new column for the age of the warrior (i.e. when it was pushed off) [20:57] * Fluffy wants to keep John occupied with the HoF ;-) [20:57] Erm... [20:58] Do you mean age in days or something [20:58] No, the date when they've been pushed off the hill [20:58] Oh, the date it left the hill [20:58] like "Wed Jan 17 20:58:26 UTC 2007" or sth. [20:58] Yay, SAL's back up! [20:58] but how long [20:59] Not use that'd fit [20:59] Down again!

[21:23] I gunned his firewall access earlier, but he kept screaming at my dns servers enough that I had them being blocked upstream because of the high number of states they were spewing... [21:24] whoa.. [21:24] one of the microgp warriors feell off [21:27] Bad John! Bad!!
