I think 2.4 is definately becoming a little more ANSI. What about your bot doesn't work well in 2.4 abyaly?

Well, it can no longer break birth ties. And it's a mystery to me why so many bots die off while eating.
Numsgil:
We should spend some effort to try and see why it's not working.
PurpleYouko:
I'll second that. If there is some aspect of 2.4 that is causing these problems then it needs to be located and fixed.

FYI, I plan to just keep pounding away on 2.4, knocking off the problems preventing 2.37.6 bots from running correctly. I'm just going to keep at it until one of three things happens: 1) I get there, 2.4 is 100% ANSI relative to 2.37.6 and everybody is happy that there are no significant compatability differences between the versions 2) 2.5 comes along AND everyone looses interest in the VB version(s) or 3) I burn out.
Leagues are on my list for 2.4, but not top of the list I suggest we not set the predecdent that there are two different leagues for the two different versions just yet, at leat not for reasons having to do with ANSI incompatabilities. Rather I suggest we keep the "official" leagues on 2.37.6 until the functional differences between the versions that impact combat bots are essentially nil. At that point, we can decide to run a special 2.4 league for bots that take atvantage of entirely new capabilities in 2.4+ if we want, but I don't think we should have two leagues simply because of "ANSI" incompatabilities.
I really appreciate that everybody keeps trying to use 2.4. It really helps me make progress. I know there is still a ways to go.
