DarwinBot Awards

(1/5) > >>

bacillus:
I thought about nominations for DarwinBot Awards. A bot elegible for a "DarwinBot Award" must show a basic form of the original Darwin Award golden rule, eg. it must remove itself from the gene pool in the most stupid fashion possible. This either means being unable to reproduce or to die. Contenders would be things such as bots who themselves are the only ones really affected by their virus, using veggies to channel power shots only to die themselves etc. This could be a fun idea. If you want to post your contender (please only post really good ones eg. not only push 50 .repro store every cycle), post it in the form of Simulation, .txt file or image, whatever reflects the behaviour the best.

gymsum:
Perhaps a small revision: the bot must destroy all other bots. This would be a crash to most sims, if a powerful enough bot went around eating up all the food and destroying all other bots, then only to destryo themselves, thus bringing an appocolyps to DB.

bacillus:
Not really the same, that would make them more of a suicide bomber; they just have to die in a brilliantly stupid fashion.
 In the true Darwinian fashion, I suggest giving merit to bots that evolved to die stupidly.

gymsum:
The question remains; what benefit comes from evolving to die?

None.  That's the point.  See this site.
