Bot Tavern / Overall league thoughts
« on: December 02, 2008, 12:43:53 AM »
I haven't been keeping up with the news lately...
Any decisions on whats happening with the F2 league?

The Holidays are here, so I thought it might be a good time for an update, possibly even a complete rerun

It's sad to see you go Eric, you've done a lot for Darwinbots.
Good luck, I hope all is well

I agree with 1/4. They make the most sense and are by far the easiest to implement.

Yeah, I'll have to update it. Another thing to put on my to-do list

I like the idea of an antbot/IB league

I could cut all bots that instakill from the F2 league. It probably wouldn't have too much of an effect, besides removing Astronomo and probably severly weakening Spinner, but it would make the F2 league a lot fairer.

Yup, it's #1. I'll update the league standings soon, still have a few bots to run.

Also, we still need to make a decision on whether or not sexrepro is allowed in F2...

Off Topic / Bank-crisis

Over here the media are busy saying this is the next big depression, and are trying to make people panic. The elections are nearing so the politicians are all busy lying as usual...

In New Zealand all of our banks are owned by offshore investors, with the exception of one, which is a state-owned enterprise, so overseas problems could be a worry. The Government has predicted a $6 billion dollar loss over the next year. It might not sound like much, but there's only 4 million people in New Zealand, so thats $1,500 per person!

Yikes!

Must add anti-fixpos defences actually - it's one thing I forgot about.

Bot Tavern / Shots

Enough poison will stop info shots...

Yeah, it is pretty powerful, although enough shell and slime will stop the shots. 200 Poison stops info shots, and shell will stop venom, but it does fire rather a lot of venom...

The shootval method isn't a precise instakill - I've seen bots with a lot of energy last a little while, but it is very potent.

Possibly an F2 version of Pacifist would be interesting. It would be much more difficult to make, but you could use venom and info shots to achieve a similar result, the only problem being that shell and slime would cancel out venom and info shots...

I'll be interested to see how well version 2.1 does in F1
