Talk:Holden

Oooh, new strong 1v1...

Oooh nice stuff Darkcanuck. While it's ranking isn't quite in the very top section yet, it beats some fairly strong bots. One interesting note, is while your gun is strong against surfers... apparently not against Holden's own surfing so much, given that it loses to PolishedRuby despite beating RougeDC. Of course... that could just be yet another sign of how terrible RougeDC's movement is against smart guns... In any case, nice stuff, keep going :) --Rednaxela 18:02, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I think there may still be a bug in the surfing somewhere because Holden only scores 83% vs bots B & C in the MC2k6. And out of only 36 losses, 15 are bots ranked below the top-50. Room for improvement, I hope? Results against PolishedRuby are mixed -- 1 win, 1 loss with the average coming out below 50%. Mirror movement has always been a problem for all of my bots

Nice work, congrats! That's a nice way to start off the week. =) --Voidious 13:28, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Very nice jump there! Just one more jump like that would put you right around what was formerly The 2000 Club territory . (Old versions of Komarious hovered right around 2K , and the current one's a touch stronger, so that's a pretty good reference.) Keep up the good work. =) --Voidious 01:04, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! PL has suffered a bit but the boost against rammers has been very welcome. I was stuck trying to figure out the rammer problem, until I watched how DrussGT does it. That prompted my much simpler version. I doubt that the new gun has helped much -- Gaff actually went down in rating with that update.

Right now I'm playing around with True Surfing -- we'll see how that goes. --Darkcanuck 04:52, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
