[09:34] Also, if you see any mistakes, tell me and I will fix it [10:09] https://sites.google.com/site/sh0newars/links [10:16] Links in red => broken links to me, but that may just be because I spent too much time on various MediaWiki driven projects. [10:18] pak21: Link to your site is working... [10:18] It's a UI design thing rather than a factual thing :-) [10:19] :| [10:21] hey give me one link in red that doesn't work so I can check out [10:21] They all work (as far as I know). It's just what it implies to me. [10:24] Oh I get it...but I don't know to change the color of links, I wanted all to be blue, but I cannot manage that cause that google pages's HTML code is a real mess [10:25] I noticed that as well :-) [10:25] Hey, man, why when I'am searching on google for my site (https://sites.google.com/site/sh0newars/) it gives me nothing? [10:25] Because nobody's linked to you. [10:26] And it's too new. [10:26] Oh, I see [10:27] yay, i fixed my "dead" mouse [10:28] with a hammer? [10:29] broken cable, i resoldered the damaged part [11:05] Join: rick_2047 joined #corewars [11:06] does anyone talk in here [11:06] yes [11:06] o actually i never saw anyone talking so i asked [11:06] no ofence ment K [11:06] ?? [11:06] just that this channel tends to be pretty quiet [11:06] except the last two days with some new beginners [11:07] why are there so less of people in the channel [11:08] a) the community is pretty small b) most people dont stay on irc when not talking [11:09] i just stumbled on the game and was wondering how many people played such a game [11:09] tell me how many do you know [11:10] currently we have about 8 active, and about 30 including lurkers and semi-actives [11:11] so that means not many play the game [11:11] unfortunately i cannot vouch for people playing C-robots and such [11:12] rick_2047: well, do you think that the counter-strike playing generation of today is interested game based mostly on optimizing your programming? [11:12] (interested on game..) [11:13] well i belong to such a generation [11:13] I am 16 [11:13] and i was looking for exactly such a thing for me [11:14] this channel has about 4 people of this generation, CS has something like 50000 active players [11:14] you know what deters people from this game [11:14] i think coz its too hard to learn [11:14] i mean its like learning assembly altogather [11:15] if it were more of a higher level language like c++ or even c it would be easier [11:16] on the plus side, we dont have spawnkillers or people who whine about lag, teams, or aimbots or.. [11:16] Although we can moan about machine-optimised constants instead :-) [11:17] true [11:17] has anyone of you ever thought about porting it to some other languge than redcode [11:17] Wouldn't really make sense. [11:17] pak21, why? [11:17] there is a corewarx86 [11:18] Mizcu, no i am talking about more high level language [11:18] Because so much of Core War is tied to the underlying implementation. [11:19] pak21, thinking again i thik ur right [11:19] pak21, coz the fasted way to command a machine a steal bytes is through assembly [11:20] no, thats not the point either [11:20] Mizcu, then? [11:20] because every higher level language is built on top of system different from what redcode is [11:21] which mars do you people use? [11:21] The concepts of Core War just don't apply to C -- eg how do you overwrite your opponent's code in C? [11:22] if you use windows, start with corewin [11:23] Mizcu, no i am on linux [11:23] then get the newest pmars [11:24] well i searched my pacage manager repo last night and installed something called corewars [11:24] it does look like a mars [11:24] that program is no longer supported, the project page doesnt exist either [11:24] it works, but i dont _trust_ it [11:25] Mizcu, thanks or i would have struggled with it [11:25] also do we still use the 94' standards or is there anything new [11:26] still '94 [11:26] thanks againg [11:26] do u play corewars actively [11:27] i have been in a passive phase since i dont want to just recreate old warriors [11:27] and ive been having a lack of ideas [11:27] but i do have an idea right now which ill have to test out [11:30] who is the ultimate guy around [11:32] Metcalf out of those who you can meet easily [11:32] (he is also the owner of corewar.co.uk ) [11:33] David Moore is probably the smartest, but he has retired, and Chip Wendell doesnt actively take part on hills [11:34] i got pmars [11:35] i think i will now try any guid [11:37] i just read about koth [11:37] is it still a active tournament [11:38] it is not a "tournament" really, but yes, it still works and it is active [11:39] where can i see the top 20 list [11:39] because in tournaments people dont just come, fight a match and then go away for a month [11:39] koth has different hills, each with different settings [11:39] so what you see there are the best warriors currently on the hill [11:40] then there is koenigstuhl which is an "infinite hill" [11:40] http://users.ociw.edu/birk/COREWAR/koenigstuhl.html [11:41] thanks maan its been very kind of you to give so much of info [11:42] will see you 2 morrow probably with a worrior of my own [11:42] byee [11:43] if you have any questions, just come and ask.

[17:10] where can i put that text file where it don't get deleted [17:11] http://atspace.com - free hosting, ftp access [17:12] Unfortunately, you can't store zip files there [17:12] No, no zip are stored on Goole, i need just text file to be stored [17:17] Alternatively, if all of your text files are warriors, submit them to Koenigstuhl and link to the warrior there :-) [17:22] Join: fiveop joined #corewars [17:23] Metcalf: No, my warriors are pretty shity, it's stupid to me to submit them to Koenigstuhl yet. When they become more powerful, I will. [17:23] How to upload to atspace.com? It gives me this message:"To upload a file, enter in one of the subdomain directories:", but I don't see nothing... [17:29] Have you made a virtual host? [17:29] you have to choose something like sh0ne.atspace.com [17:36] I uploaded file, and when I tried to view it, it says "File not found" and then redirects... [17:36] My mistake... [17:40] I updated link... [17:41] What URL?

Maybe there's was a slight delay before it came online due to caching.
