1.94
Congrats on a huge jump into the #3 slot! You ever gonna divulge your changes? Inquiring minds want to know. =)
Looking at the score diff, I see a large improvement against mid-weight surfers. So my bet is on an improved anti-surfer gun + misc tweaks.
I have been kind of busy with starting college, but I'll update the version history soon. I think the biggest improvement comes from changing my kernel density function for surfing. I used to use the normal distribution, I now use 1 / (x^2 +1). The integral is atan so this seemed to also be a speed increase.
Congrats:) I was sure, that Tomcat have strong safety area... Unfortunately (for me of course) i have no time for robocoding until new year, so you have no opponents in battle for third place now:) And if you will take part in race for crown, you will be my new favorite (until ConceptA grow to this race, for sure) :)

I don't want to be a bad influence or anything, but it seems like some of the most active Robocoding in history has happened during people's college years. =) I know that's when I got hooked and wrote Dookious, and I think David Alves with both Duelist and Phoenix, and our current illustrious King... But, by all means, try and focus on school. =)
Yeah, during my undergrad I always found that I got the most Robocoding done during exam periods - something I could sort-of convince myself didn't count as play, but was much more interesting than studying =) I wonder if that's been the motivation others have had as well...
