Did you try all of the results it gave you? e.g: for http://www.teleport.com/~stiltman/oromorth.html it returns results for oct 31 2001, dec 13 2001, feb 2...
Hey guys, I just came home from vacation, and I was disappointed that the tournament results still have not been posted. How long does it normally take to run...
Yes, your right. I usually like to review robots for a day then run it over that night, but as I mentioned in an email a few weeks ago, I had to leave for New...

I observed that under very rare circumstances, Bot0rz can totaly miss small, nonmoving robots. Did this crop up in the course of t22? How would this be...
I don't have mac access yet, so I don't know exactly what u mean by "miss" robots. Do you mean it fires shots and misses or that it simply never picks up...
... I mean it never sees them at all. It has only happened twice or so when I re-ran T22 at my house. (The reason being that I wanted to see if my robot could...
Robots are all treated as 10 radius circles (outlined in the icon factory), no matter what their icons are. I think what your talking about is the sitting...

I just got a chance to look over the tournament entries from T22. I am very impressed with blink. I can't really think of any way that I could beat him in 1x1...
Of course, in fact I did run the robots against past tournaments because I needed to see more diversity to really be able to judge the silver star. I ran them...

I think the biggest change needed is obviously a PC version of the game that runs the current bots. I looked at robowar2, and I was just confused with all the...
I expect that increasing the run from 200 to 500 would not make a huge difference in the outcome. All of the bots in the winner's circle really stomp me in...
... I felt similarly in T21 when Randy was the only one other person who had been in previous tournaments that sent new bots. I'm not sure how huge an ...

Yes, I think you are basically right. It was also imposed to try to force more efficient programming. Basically you had to write code well, or limit its...
