Several of us have code in various languages that handle stacking jumps. I can't speak for others, but I'd be happy to share any code I have, if it would...
Don, <br><br>I was assuming the robot tourney for the kids version would be no sooner than the normal contest, given it was announced(?) later. I'm pretty ...
Hi Jason,<br><br>You're welcome to look at my Octi code. Actually, I've been meaning to post the source for the program from last October, but I was embarassed...
Charles,<br><br>Lisp eh? I should be able to deciper it :). I'll keep an eye out for your post. <br><br>Is it worth coming up with a common API/Library ...
Hi,<br><br>An OCTI for Kids tournament? Cool! Will there be a prize? I vote we hold it now. : p<br><br>The lack of OCTI online has become more than annoying....
Yes, it *is* annoying that octi on-line has been out of action for a week. We do need a new server, and I'm open to suggestions. Vector, am I correct to ...
Hi Don,<br><br>8/25 sounds good to me.<br><br>I think everyone in the contest will want to know which bot is strongest among bots, and can the strongest bot...
Good, Jason. Hal, Aaron, and others writing robots, do you prefer an open OFK tourney or one just between bots?<br><br>Once we get a consensus, I'll announce...
That depends. Will you be a contestant? So far you are the only real threat to my bot. In fact I haven't beaten it at a decent level since I last changed the...
HAL,<br><br>In a month or so hopefully your bot will have a new playmate to smack around. I am a little concerned with the deterministic nature of the game...
Sure, I want to play in the tournament. I can think of several players who could give the robots a good battle (e.g., Dean and the Four Daves). <br><br>What do...

Jason,<br><br>That's an interesting way to fit the board on the screen. I have to say I didn't think of that. Luckily with Windows 2000 you can make DOS ...
Actually, Chuck's implementation runs on Java. Um... I think he put his online for download... anybody remember where? (Probably in the archives of this...
Personally, I'd like to know two things:<br> (a) which program is best, and <br> (b) can people beat the programs<br>?<br><br>While an open tournament would...
HAL,<br><br>Thanks for taking the time to look at my program, and pointing out a few oversights :). Your correct I do check the entire sequence prior to ...
Thanks to HAL, I believe I've eliminated two bugs (actually 3, the first would let you capture the jumping pod!). <br><br>I'm not going to make it a habit to ...
Eoin just contacted me to say that he'll reboot the Octi on-line server tonight.<br><br>Vector, thanks for all the work that went into your new client! Let's...
Thanks for the info on linux versions. I'll be checking some of them out. By the way, I often see references here to different people's programs (Hal's, ...
