Found new provider[21:36:10]digital.wilderness : It should be on r.g.c. There's also a corewar subreddit but I didn't post there.[21:43:00]john.kipling.lewis : Who is KOTH Master?[21:43:06]slack1 : Tuc[21:43:25]john.kipling.lewis : Hey Tuc![21:43:33]slack1 : Hi hi[21:44:13]slack1 : Probably should be master[21:45:31]slack1 : Far from a Koth Master[21:50:46]digital.wilderness : I'm scoring quite well at the moment. A potential Koth Master! :stuck_out_tongue:[22:03:06]slack1 : <@UBZCDSVKN> since spending time moving KOTH I'm open to any additional information or fixes[22:03:46]slack1 : Maybe even features[22:06:29]john.kipling.lewis : A search function for every warrior ever recorded?[22:10:24]digital.wilderness : Do you mean to search for past results for a warrior?[22:31:32]slack1 : Is slow for anyone right now?[22:37:36]digital.wilderness : Seems fine here.[22:38:52]digital.wilderness : By the way, have you got any KOTH backups it might be possible to extract old warriors from (if the warrior author gives permission)?[22:40:42]slack1 : I've got 2 94nop backups, one from Mar 2005 and one from Jul 2006, but thats about it. :confused:[22:41:12]slack1 : Oh, wait... 94 from Oct 2002 and another 94 from Nov 2010[22:41:47]slack1 : Oh, actually, every hill from Oct 2002[22:42:29]slack1 : ```[root@ip-172-31-131-251 kothorg]# ls -ld h*

At a quick glace it looks like there should be a few there like Positive Knife by Ken Espiritu and Her Majesty by Paul Kline. Unfortunately I don't know how to get hold of Ken now, but I can ask Paul for permission for Her Majesty. (I've asked before but he's lost the code)[22:50:12]slack1 : Oct 2002 hill 94 (EG)[22:50:15]slack1 : ```fighter10.rc:;Address

A few by JKW there.[23:11:39]john.kipling.lewis : Paul was pretty open about his code.[23:12:27]digital.wilderness : Yes, lots of interesting published code. A lot posted while it was still active on the hill.[23:14:34]digital.wilderness : <@UBZCDSVKN> by the way, did I ever ask if you have an Core War stuff from back in the day? Especially the 80s :slightly_smiling_face:[23:20:24]john.kipling.lewis : I have a hand written piece of code called OGRE for the first CoreWars tournament. I didn't have a core, so I simulated it with graphpaper...[23:22:35]digital.wilderness : Ogre was one of the first warriors I looked at when I started Core War. It was bundled with the first MARS I used.[23:23:28]john.kipling.lewis : [23:23:39]john.kipling.lewis : That's mine.[23:24:14]john.kipling.lewis : There's even an error in the code... :wink:[23:28:03]digital.wilderness : Missing # on the ADD?[23:29:03]john.kipling.lewis : :slightly_smiling_face:[23:30:04]john.kipling.lewis : doligez offered to fix it before archiving it but I thought it better to leave it broken, a tribute to my youth. I think I was 16?[23:36:28]john.kipling.lewis : I used to have a copy of that first Scientific American article. I used to read it over and over.[23:37:02]digital.wilderness : Only a few of the warriors from the first tournament are available :disappointed:[23:38:05]john.kipling.lewis : ???[23:41:48]john.kipling.lewis : That looks like almost all of them...[23:47:20]digital.wilderness : They're from the second / third tournaments. There are a few from the first tournament printed in TCWN issue 1 (not available in Planar's archive).[23:47:31]digital.wilderness :
