[12:12] yup, but I had a lot of things to do [12:12] hi [12:12] I'm fine ... and decided to create some warriors again [12:13] hi fiveop [12:13] cool [12:13] Will publish The Art of Corewar later today [12:13] I also do some cw working [12:13] coool :-) [12:13] I am working on a new, dynamic hill concept [12:14] meaning what? [12:14] it already works fine [12:14] at least I like the kind of hill ;-) [12:14] it's an open hill, no size restrictions [12:14] but the warriors fight only their neighbors [12:15] and if they get more win than loss they climb up the rankings [12:15] otherwise they drop down [12:15] as better they performed as more quickly they climb up [12:16] and as the hill would be very dynamic it will run on fixed times [12:16] no matter if new warriors entered or not [12:16] as the recently entered warriors still on their way up the ranking [12:19] interesting ... will you setup up a public hill for that? [12:19] actually I simulate such a hill under real conditions to see if there is some clustering or not [12:19] yes, I would open such a test hill [12:20] but as the hill runs at fixed times there won't be a mail-demon or something like that [12:20] I would collect all entries and add them on the bottom of the hill [12:21] the output of my script generates a html which I just need to copy to my website [12:21] And how often do you plan to run that hill? [12:21] I'm not sure yet [12:22] Maybe it should depend on the number of warriors that you get [12:22] yes [12:59] I've sent TAoCW to rgc [13:00] I'm really curious what it is :-P [13:01] grmpf ... and of course that stupid web interface mutilated the source code [13:01] Will send it to Koenigstuhl [13:02] I'm sure it will found in a very high spot [13:05] Sascha and I spent a lot of time optimizing and adjusting that warrior [13:07] We've been looking for a good paper to start with and finally we sticked with a modified nPaper II [13:09] yes, somehow it works extremely well [13:10] We have tried a lot of different papers and couldn't find any that was better. [13:10] Finally we restricted ourselves to improve nPaper II [13:12] In the end we even optimized the position of the paper code inside the whole warrior. [13:12] yes [13:12] If I remember correctly we got something like +0.2 points because of that [13:13] I also did that as the final step to position the boot and the main warrior inside the whole code [13:15] I added TAoCW to my test hill, just to see how well it climb up the ranks [13:15] * Fluffy is looking through his backups to find the scores against fsh94nop 0.3 [13:16] should be within 4-5 tournaments hit the top [13:16] ohh, yes, that would be interesting [13:16] I guess beyond 145, right?
