Hello all

I am new here as you can see

This game is really nice, love it ^^ i could play this the whole day

I already uploaded my bot but he didnt fight till now (maybe others are scared ^^)

Thx for this great game

glad you like the game

the bots don't play all the time right now -- i watch for new bots and start the games up as soon as i see one. yours was uploaded in a different time zone, so it took until now for me to see it, sorry

adum

No problem ! thank you very much

Its fantastic to see your robot fighting ^^ never played a game like this.

Nice site, keep up the good work !

*edit*

If i upload a new version of my bot, do you need to add it again ??

if you upload a new version of your bot, it will start fighting immediately (assuming i have the fight server running.) i don't have to do anything manual, just keep the server running.

glad you're having fun -- i have fun with it too

adum

wait till my bitbath bot comes into the ring if i only could use perl or python or ruby ... lord how i hate java but i will learn it ... and hopefully win 3 or 4 fights

Hi

I think java is the easiest prgoramming language. Its not hard to learn, but if you want to code in your language, try to search for a programm which translate your code into java, (i think i heard about programms like this)

My bot is not finished already i just wanted to see how he is fighting against others, so i know what to fix and how to make the AI better.

I hope our bots will fight against each other ^^

good luck your both

I wanted to chime in and add my suport.

This game rocks!

How much does it rock?

Let's put it this way. I am very lazy. I am lazy enough to have been unemplyed for the last 18 months . I had no training in programming. The only experience I have ever had with programming of any kind was dinking around in a TI - 82 calculator over ten years ago. I like computers. I got a CCNA a while back (expired), and like to think I'm fairly smart. I like to figure stuff out, puzzles have always appealed to me.

This game, framed as a puzzle / competition, has provided me the impetus to teach myself both the concepts of programming, and the java language. Considering how lazy I am, and how much work that is, it would take a LOT of awesomeness to motivate me.

This game has that much awesomeness.

More praise for BitBath!

This is so simple to learn, but very hard to master.

I'd never programmed in java before, so it took a bit of learning, but it was well worth it.
