Innovation Update:

I had an idea on how to turn my speculations on DynamicSegmentation? using Decision Tree Learning (see discussion on Segmentation/Prioritizing) into an actual implementation that creates the tree as it's being used (there may be some room in the future to do complete restructuring of the tree on a separate thread). I call it SplitTargeting, and the first run of it gets a solid 89.3 TC score, so I think it has some good potential.

My Bots:

• MegaBots:
  • SpareParts
  • FloodHT (Team: TidalWave)
  • Co-authored MakoHT with PEZ
  • FloodGrapher (technically, FloodGrapher is a bot now, FloodGrapherGUI? is the grapher).
  • Girl (used to be a MiniBot, but outgrew that. The point is that it's a Robot).
• MiniBots:
  • CircleBot (not by design, just coincidentially)
  • FloodMini
  • Teancum
  • Barracuda (a.k.a. - FloodMini 1.2 with a buggy gun!)
  • Fhqwhgads
  • Coriantumr
  • Co-authored GouldingiHT with PEZ
  • Co-authored Sedan with Iiley
• MicroBots:
  • FloodMicro
  • FhqwhgadsMicro
  • Shiz (Team: ArmyOfShiz)
• NanoBots:
  • SillyBot
  • FloodNano
  • FunkyChicken
  • FunkyLeech
  • Lib
  • ThnikkaBot
• HaikuBots:
  • HaikuCircleBot
  • HaikuSillyBot
  • HaikuChicken
  • HaikuEight
  • HaikuParrot
  • HaikuLinearAimer
  • HaikuTrogdor
• Sonnets?:
  • FloodSonnet
• FemtoBots:
  • FunkyFemto
  • FemtoTrogdor (also Haiku)
• Dedicated Teams:
  • MarioBros (TwinDuel)
• Non-competitive:
  • WhatTheHeck
  • WallsKiller
  • TeancumPMC
  • FloodMiniStationary
  • FloodRMC?
• Test bots:
  • SandboxFlattener - source of the FloodMovement
  • LineBacker? - a test in ProvocativeMovement - tries to corner or back its opponent up to the walls. May make for a good team bot sometime.
  • MirrorGravity? - melee movement that didn't work, but I almost used it in FloodHT
  • SplitTargeting - a promising DynamicSegmentation? idea I'm throwing around.

Aside from my competitive bots, I also claim (sort of) WhatTheHeck, available on the repository, to prove the existance of a Teleport bug in Robocode 1.0.6, and WallsKiller, which shows how to beat Walls while standing still. For various challenges on this wiki, I developed TeancumPMC, FloodMiniStationary and FloodRMC?, and maybe some others, too. I took an afternoon to slap together a few /HaikuBots, too, which are always good to download to make sure you don't lose to them.

Some old versions of SpareParts as well as the sound version can be downloaded at http://students.cs.byu.edu/~kawigi/robots/ , and there are also some screenshots I posted under SandboxFlattener - score dialogs from the original test robot (I have some that approach even over 100 rounds, but I wasn't normally that lucky).

I'm beginning development and setup for a new tournament I'm calling the RobocodeLittleLeague. More details later.

There has been a question recently who has created the most bots. I've magled current rankings through few regexps, sort and uniq, and found the answer:
The most FertileRobocoder is Kawigi.
Congratulations. --lRem
