Anshee

Just saw this name on the uploaders list for the rumble....welcome to the wiki, and introduce youself! -- Skilgannon

• Um... should this page be named "Banshee", not "Anshee"? -- AaronR
• I was just wondering that - the bot package is "banshee", but the [uploader's list] says "Anshee"... Anyway, whenever he/she introduces him/herself, I can rename the page if necessary. =) -- Voidious
• Maybe his/her first initial is "B"? -- AaronR

[2007-11-10] Hello :-) Sorry it took me a few days, but I never suspected the community here to be so active and welcome for newcomers: I came here today to found a page only to find out that it already exists :-) So the short intro part: my real name is Maciej Hrynczyszyn, I live in Poznań, Poland and I work as Java developer. As for whether whether it should be 'banshee' or 'anshee': I chose 'anshee' for uploading results because roborumble client told me 'banshee' was already taken. But it doesn't really matter, I use both versions regularly. So for me it can stay like it is.

I started off with a very simple bot (banshee.mini.Nexus6), dusting off my math skills in the development process (who would think one forgets trigonometry so fast...?). The important thing is the rule I imposed on self at the beginning of development: I don't peek into others' code (or at least at the very minimum...), I want to implement all basic to intermediate stuff: (from linear, circular guns, to 'prediction' systems: surfing or bullet avoidance in general, targeting based on statistical analysis) all by myself. Only after that phase I'll look for others' ideas to stea^Wborrow :-)

This approach, I believe, will give me most fun while robocoding. On the other hand though, this probably greatly delays the moment my bots will pose any serious threat, but that's something my ego can live with for a while :-) But don't taunt me, please, if my next few releases keep hanging around 400 ;-)

Cheers and thanks for the welcome! :-) -- Anshee
