I've been working on updating Teledont to do something similar - or I guess opposite. I've set it up to be conservative at first and then try to attack in...

... Division is working right (as you can see if you multiply the quotients by 100 before printing), but display of fractions is all messed up. That's why the...
One thing I thought I would bring up. There are getting to enough viable side that you can't run them all at once. What kind of procedure should we have (do...
... The increasing number of sides with missile defense also helps. ... We might increase the cooling cost, at least for large cells. Warren wants to make it...
I posted updates to Gnats and Teledont this morning. The changes to Gnats were very minor. I changed to a much smaller, higher firepower ratio, weapon and...
That pesky toad. It always annoys me when it crunches everything. I guess maybe you guys felt that way about teledont. I'm glad to see strategy advancing. I...
... Yeah. The toad always messes up my plans. :D...

... Yes. But I don't think World Toad will require rule changes. It scores as well as it does only because everything else good dies early. It shouldn't be...
In a message dated 11/12/02 9:38:35 PM Mountain Standard Time, ... The one regulating the larger cells seems a rather recent and infulential one iffen ye...
... Yeah. Imacs are G3's, so it should work for you....

I was really referring to the large cell cost and explosion changes when I mentioned changes. You seem a little distressed about the drop in survival rates. I...
... Oh. I thought you meant changes that could have caused the different results in the latest tournament. ... Yes. It's not just the agressive sides...
Well I bought a new monitor(don't have the cash to get a Mac yet) and can now do programming on my (increasily inappropiately named) Grobot Calc. With the ...

I fixed several horrible bugs in Intoxicated as well a scaled it back to fit in the new rules. It's doing much better now (Repairing helps....

... Most rounds end with three or fewer sides anyway, so we already have this sort of contest. - Devon __________________________________________________ Do...
What I think is more interesting is that now it is feasible to open all of the viable sides, say 15 or 20, and let them run 10 at a time. The usual suspects...
I see you cranked up cooling charges some more. Have you considered removing the artificial penalties for small cells? I saw Intoxicated now has a 'Yick'...
Devon pointed out that I had not credited you guys for the yick in the code. Sorry, I meant too do that, and thought I had. I'm taking it out of the next...

I think that someone clever enough could take advantage of having no overhead costs. 20 Energy will allow you to make a bomb with 136 damage. You could make...
... Okay. It's out anyway on the latest version that is online. ... Hehe, a 20 cost cell would make excellent chaff to foil radar with though. I think that is...

I love the way commune behaves. It's a great looking grobot....
