----
People who have written a bot with a RoboRumble@Home rating of over 2000 points with at least 1000 battles fought (500 till June 2006) in the general 1-v-1 category.

Kindly request permission to join on July 31, 2004 (screenshot available). -- [[Pulsar]]

You don't need permission dude. That screenshot is your ticket. -- [[PEZ]]

Added [[Pear]], dunno if the authors are correct, please correct if not... -- [[Axe]]

Thank you Axe, the authors are absolutely correct. -- [[iiley]]

And, i am thinking of the flag of here, can we have the Chinese flag here, Pear 0.58 should be a chinese bot, since there was no one else joined our [[Tide]] project.  -- [[iiley]]

First version of Phoenix barely gets me in, 2001.6 after 724 battles. :-) --[[David Alves]]

Added [[Toad]] and corrected countryflag URL.  --[[GrubbmGait]]

Well, just by the skin of my teeth, but it counts :-D Hooray! -- [[Voidious]]

No fair, Nanos only go up to 1800 or so :)  --[[Miked0801]]
*Nano bots snub their noses at megabots, so it is fitting. -- Martin
*You could make an 1800Club for NanoBots, maybe? Seems reasonable enough to me ;) -- [[Voidious]]

There should be "clubs" for each weight class I think. Breaking 2000 means you can score almost 80% on average against the population of bots in the weight class in question. No nano comes close. [[Freddie]] scores 65.8% against other nanos. 80% seems quite unreachable, but that doesn't mean it is. -- [[PEZ]]

That would make you the only Robocoder to be in two 2000 clubs, wouldn't it? There's a record worthy of mention. -- [[Greywhind]]

And it's with the same bot. =) -- [[PEZ]]

Some more info about relative ratings: excluding ad.last.Bottom (which dominates this calculation, for obvious reasons), the standard deviation for the MegaBot ratings (203) is close to double that of the NanoBot ratings (121). Given a center of 1600, this makes a MegaBot 2000 very close to a NanoBot 1800 in terms of standard deviations. -- [[Voidious]]
: If this actually interests anyone, the standard deviations are 185 and 165 for MiniBots and MicroBots, respectively. (I'd guesstimate 1950 and 1900 equivalents in those two, then, but obviously it's all arbitrary anyway.) -- [[Voidious]]

Congrats Kev! When is that 16th birthday, again? =) -- [[Voidious]]

Well actually it's in only two days! And it looks like you may have spoken too soon... WaveSerpent has dropped down to 1998. Being in [[The2000Club]] is great, but I'd like to see WaveSerpent with a 2000+ rating after 1000 battles. Another release is coming tomorrow. Will I make it? Wish me luck... -- [[Kev]]

Yeah, good luck! No doubt you want to stay afloat above 2000, but until the rules change, you made the club (2k after 500 battles.)I think you have the "youngest to reach 2K" award by a large margin, anyway. ([[Alcatraz]] was 17.) Nice job! -- [[Voidious]]

Great, this is an excellent (few days early) birthday present! [[WaveSerpent]] 0.51c is released with a few movement tweaks. It preforms well enough in tests to make me think it will reach 2000, but only time will tell. And I think [[deathcon]] was 16 when [[Shiva]] got in. -- [[Kev]]

Big congrats to [[Corbos]] - talk about "not getting rusty"... I guess this is the year the Americans take over? =) Great job, Corbos! -- [[Voidious]]

Waiting anxiously to see... Good luck KID! --[[David Alves]]

Oh, I couldn't enter the 2K club with this bot, it's half mine and half [[PEZ]]'s. That would just be wrong! Besides, when I make it, I'll make it by myself. -- [[KID]]

Congratulations to GrubbmGait! He finally got in this club before myself ;( --[[Krabb]]

Congrats [[Krabb]]! What a close race between you two. Keep up the good work ;) -- [[Voidious]]

Contradulations, looks like I lost. Trying to push myself the last few days led me to be so exausted I slept the rest of the day yesterday after returning from class. --[[Chase-san]]

Congratulations to both of you [[Krabb]] and [[GrubbmGait]]! -- [[Kev]]

Yeah, congrats to myself and [[Krabb]] :-D  With some more people knocking on the door this could be a fertile year.  -- [[GrubbmGait]]

Whats next? A race to 2025? the top 10? the top 5? king?

Thanks :) I would propose top 10 as the next aim. --[[Krabb]]

I feel more like a 2050 rating . . .  let me check what place that is ;-p  -- [[GrubbmGait]]

Thats top 10. --[[Chase-san]]

It is right now, anyways :-) -- [[Kawigi]]

Well, I guess I was a bit late your y'all's race, but here is my entry.  :)  I have a screen shot, but I don't have webspace - so if anyone would be so kind ... -- [[Simonton]]

And the 2nd person (after [[PEZ]]) to have a MiniBot as their ticket =) Great work! (And added a screenshot.) -- [[Voidious]]

Congrats Simonton! I already stated that you were an outsider (sports-wise) meaning that you were capable doing it, even with a mini!  -- [[GrubbmGait]]

Congrats, [[Skilgannon]]! =) Looks like you ended the longest dry spell since [[Alcatraz]] / [[Florent]].

Thanks! Do you think that the level is getting higher, or are people losing interest, or what? -- [[Skilgannon]]

Hehe, I should really start on movement, but I wanna get this gun to be able to kick most bots in the teeth first. And also Congratz! --[[Chase-san]]

ProtoDruss is currently at 2011 with 500 battles or so, but I think the movement more defines the robot then the gun, so I decline membership if it stays long enough to become stable. --[[Chase-san]]

That and I would much perfer to make it on my own, it just wouldn't feel right to make it this way. Its at 2006 at 1439 battles. And if I never make it, well there are plenty of great robocoders that never made the 2000 club. ;) --[[Chase-san]]
*I've been at it 2 years and my peak has been about 1840. -- Martin

Congrats dude! =) And by quite a margin, sheesh! -- [[Voidious]]

Welcome in this prestigious club. This is a good year.  -- [[GrubbmGait]]

Welcome, AaronR! -- [[Simonton]]

Holy ... that's not right! Take it back! I forgot something important!

<pre>
public class Horizon extends AdvancedRobot {
	static {
		components.add(new RadarLock());
		components.add(new DynamicClusteringWaveSurfingMovement());
		components.add(new RaikoGun());
		//components.add(new GFTargetingBotGun());
		//components.add(new DynamicClusteringGuessFactorGun());
	}
}
</pre>

Oooops... -- [[AaronR]]

Booooooooo!  Go back home!!!!!!!  Shame and humiliation to you!!  ;) -- [[Simonton]]

So much for my 140 point jump... ;) But the real new version of Horizon appears to be an improvement anyway, so I guess I should be happy. -- [[AaronR]]

I think I'm back in with 1.0betaF4. =) -- [[AaronR]]

Congratulations! Add yourself! --[[David Alves]]

Big congrats, dude! -- [[Voidious]]

Very nice, very nice. -- [[Simonton]]

* Hey, ''you'' were the one who found the bug! =) -- [[AaronR]]
* Heh, it takes more than finding 1 bug to get into The2000Club!  -- [[Simonton]]

Great job! -- [[Kev]]

Good work. I need to work hard so I can get in here. --[[Chase-san]]

Hmm... I don't have anywhere where I can put the screenshot. Didn't Voidious (graciously) host the screenshot for my first "admission"? -- [[AaronR]]

Ah, just barely caught me before bed =) Screenshot is up. -- [[Voidious]]

* Thanks! Wow, that was fast. =) -- [[AaronR]]

I just like to think about how proud I am to be the first member of The2000Club hailing from the great country of _______. Also, congratulations to Skilgannon, the first member of [[The2100Club]] from !@#$%^&*()_+.

=P -- [[AaronR]]

Yeah, we're pretty unique, huh? =) -- [[Skilgannon]]

While technically not from the country, if I ever make it (<.<), I will be the first representing JJJJJ in the 2000 area, which seems a little odd huh. --[[Chase-san]]

Well then... now that [[RougeDC]] is [http://rumble.fervir.com/rumble/RatingDetails?game=roborumble&name=ags.rougedc.RougeDC%20Beta4a&compare=true well over 2000] with my own gun as opposed to the gun it used in the Raiko gun it used in the early releases, I think I'm ready to join in  on the party here! I have no place to host a screenshot though because my university hosting is down currently, but yeah... :) -- [[Rednaxela]]

Nice work! (Not that I didn't see this coming ;-) ) Screenshot added... -- [[Skilgannon]]

Thanks! Also, sorry to spoil your uniqueness of being a The2000Club member from !@#$%^&*()_+ =P -- [[Rednaxela]]

Just managed to squeak onto the bottom of the 2000+ RR@H mega ratings with [[Drifter]] 26c.  :)  Thought I'd better enter it before it fell off again! -- [[Tim Foden]]

Congrats! Looks like [[Drifter]] is stable at 2001 =) -- [[Skilgannon]]
* Thanks!  Your successful use of [[CrowdTargeting|Crowd Targetting]], and reading Albert's comments on the BestPSpace page, inspired me to try it.  [[Drifter]] 26c is using CT for both surfing and targetting.  Its still early days for this code in [[Drifter]] so I'll hopefully be able to squeeze a lot more performance out of it. -- [[Tim Foden]]

Congrats dude! -- [[Voidious]]
* Thanks man! -- [[Tim Foden]]

Anyone noticed that [[Chase-san]] entered this club due to the ratingdrift? And that, after years, SandboxDT and [[Aleph]] are very close too ?   -- [[GrubbmGait]]

I added Zyx to this club, the first of 2009! --[[Nat]]
* Thanks [[Nat]].
* I'm confusing when adding you. Do you want 0.1beeta or 1.0? It all above 2000, but I think you should more proud of 0.1beta to enter the club more than 1.0 anyway... --[[nat]]
* Yes 0.1beta is the first one who got in, so it should be it. Also I think there is a big bug in 1.0, but I've been busy to check. --[[Zyx]]

Good job. I'll be here some day. --[[Chase]]

I'll go there before you if I can, but almost all my robots now becoming PhoeniX :) (mean that take 3 years to develop) Do anyone know that Zyx enter robocode community for only 2 months and 19 days! (count from first newton page: Nov, 25) I think he is the fastest one. Anyone embarrassed? Especially Paul Evans. I'm going for youngest one (I'm 13 until July 3, hope Awesomeness, who is 13 years old, will enter just after his 14th birthday) --[[Nat]]
* Now I'm getting embarrassed. To be fair, I haven't invented anything, only implemented what others have done, hopefully someday I will become known for inventing something. -- [[Zyx]]
* Then only Shadow is the top-ten bot that has its own gun/movement. It is not to be embarrassed. Only two parts of your code I believed is come from another robot, Precise Prediction and KdTree. The left is more than enough to said that it is your. As Crazybasoonist said to me "Ok, I thought that the pm code is not yours, but the robot is." It is not about fair, it is about you write it, or stole it as my GF/PM gun in my BlackHole? Anyway, [quote=simonton]"Don't use my code until (unless?) you fully understand it and can rewrite it from scratch". I believed that nearly no one can create Wave Surfing code from blank notepad without robocode source. (The Precise Prediction, which, I believed, from only 2 place, Apollon and [[FuturePosition]]) --[[Nat]]
* I meant embarrassed as blushing or something like that. Of course I am proud of my code, even when it only won against the sample bots. And of course, the wiki is here to teach, so I don't feel bad for using what I've learned. What I tried to express is that writing the code isn't as big an accomplishment as inventing a method, and you mentioned [[Paul Evans]], who I believe influenced current Robocode algorithms the most. Because even [[WaveSurfing]] is easier to invent after [[GuessFactorTargeting]] has been created. --[[Zyx]]
*To be fair, using a KDTree in your gun doesn't really improve you score. What it really does is make your bot run faster. If I ever get the time I plan to write my own KDTree, optimised, as the rest of DrussGT is, for execution speed. But until then, [[Simonton]]'s tree works wonders for keeping the rumble running quickly. And I have done very little in the way of inventions, perhaps the most I can boast is my high speed goto-predictor and having the most movement buffers of any bot in the rumble. -- [[Skilgannon]]
* You will not hold on most buffers so long. As my plan, I'm creating BlackHole for about 500 buffers but I hard coded it so it has very long code. (I'm 500 array and sum all of the bin every tick) --[[Nat]]
