[20:14] meh [20:15] hi Miz [20:59] Join: Metcalf joined #corewars [20:59] Hi :-) [21:00] hmm [21:00] one CW invention done today, kinda silly useless one [21:00] but thats more in one week than last 6 months.. [21:01] Hi Yey [21:01] Hi Mizcu [21:03] :-) [21:04] I've been playing with code to calculate x^n (mod coresize) [21:12] Join: OoS joined #corewars [21:13] Hi Yey, are you still here?

[21:32] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [21:32] you still using a webchat? [21:33] No, I'm using Xircon [21:34] then i have to say that your connection is quite horrible [21:35] I'm connecting via a mobile phone network though and the signal is sometimes poor [21:40] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [21:48] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [21:58] Join: Caelian_ joined #corewars [21:59] Join: nlo joined #corewars [22:00] hello there [22:00] hi [22:00] i am new to corewars :) [22:00] yes, i didnt remember seeing you here before [22:00] how may i be of assistance? [22:01] i don't have many questions at the moment, i'm just sifting through all of the beginner material at the moment [22:02] MSG: Ping timeout: 252 seconds [22:02] http://sfghoul.blogspot.com/2007/07/top-10-links-for-corewar-newbies.html [22:02] ahh, thanks a bunch [22:04] i'm in a systems programming course, and we're having our own corewars competition between the students [22:05] it's C compiled down to MIPS instead of redcode, so it should be interesting [22:06] and instead of alternating instructions every turn like it looks mars does, you alternate every 500 instructions between programs [22:07] well, i cannot offer that much help about that case, since you enviroment differs from redcode [22:07] there does exist corewar8086, which i havent used [22:07] (because i dont do any ACTUAL assembly-coding ) [22:08] that's fine, i'm just trying to learn the game and read up on a bunch of strategies so that i can hopefully morph a few to our implementation [22:09] MSG: Quit: Trillian (http://www.ceruleanstudios.com [22:09] i might try the actual redcode-based corewars after this is over [22:09] it sounds like a lot of fun [22:09] saying that brings warmth to my heart [22:10] very few people give any thought to redcode nowadays [22:10] or any other "warrior programming" for that matter [22:12] that's unfortunate [22:12] about how many people are actively involved in corewars today? [22:14] Active, maybe 5. Lurkers, i think 5-10 more, and about 10 "watchers" to that. [22:14] geez, is that all? [22:15] Lot of people let projects brew over long time so saying that someone is "active" is bit of a bad wording [22:15] oh, i see [22:15] but theres really only a handful, and another "semi-retired" [22:22] well, thanks for the intro material, i'll likely be back soon [22:25] MSG: Quit: Leaving [23:51] Join: nlo joined #corewars [23:52] MSG: Client Quit [23:52] Join: noah joined #corewars
