Anyone Have a Huge Challenge File?

I'd be happy to run BedMaker for you when I'm home this evening (and/or post some of my bigger .rrc files). Until then, you could try the ones I ran for User:Tkiesel a while back. [1] [2] ("150 bots that deBroglie rev0108 scores 57-95 against")

I'm sure some bots are not currently in the rumble, so it's possible you'll be missing some.

I could get by on those, but if you run me one, I'm thinking maybe 250 bots that XanderCat scores 0-95 against.

Nice timing, just got home. Here's 3 versions of that config: [1] [2] [3]

Muahaha. It will take forever to run, but by goodness, maybe it will actually be useful this time! Thank you!! Now if I can just figure out how to justify upgrading my old Core 2 Duo with a top of the line i7 processor...

PR: i can share with you my i7 with help of Distributed robocode :)

Wow. That looks a lot more advanced than I thought it was. I've actually got a Linux server in my basement that I use as my network storage (no media streaming, just backup) and code repository, but otherwise it does nothing. It's not that powerful, but since it mostly sits idle, I will look into setting it up as a node for distributed Robocode.

Ok, say if you setup it - then i configure portforwarding, so you will available connect to my DR servers

I'm still planning on doing this, but it might be a couple more weeks. When I went to my basement to set up the server, I noticed the CPU fan had stopped working. This is not really a problem with the CPU mostly idling as it does now, but if I set up Distributed Robocode on it, I need a working fan. I'll be putting a new fan on it sometime in the next couple of weeks, after which I can get Distributed Robocode going on it.

No problem, and good luck! As for the Robocode-inspired upgrade, I gave up on justifying it and just did it last summer. :-)

I start write Robocode Development Kit this month and currently it's just can download all participitians and genereate challenge files. There're no public available builds, but you can see project here: [1]. If you interesting, i can upload build of it for you.

I'll take a look at it. Thanks.

Frequent resubmits to the rumble were annoying me in the past.

But now I use a custom priority battles algorithm which places my bots above others until they have about 15 battles per pairings. :P

After that it resumes normal priority battles driven by the server.

Nice. I've always thought you should have control over what battles your client is willing to run. After all, it's not like you are contributing any less battles for other bots than someone who isn't running a client at all.
