What do you think about bringing the GigaRumble participants to the main roborumble page, and adding the gigarumble.txt and gigarumble.sh/bat files to the superpacks?
Totally cool with me, I do think it's a pretty interesting rumble. Worth noting that it requires a little maintenance to actually sort the main rumble by PL and update the participants list from time to time, but the top 30 doesn't change that often.
Also open to discussion about the number of bots/format/name and such, all of which I dictated when it was just me playing around.
Does this mean I should start keeping my own entry updated on the participants list? At the moment, XanderCat 11.4 is still in the GigaRumble, which is quite a bit out of date.
Once you are on this page, you have your ticket in. Feel free to edit.
Voidious, I'm sure you could automate the page generation?
Er, yeah, I guess I could. Sort main rankings by PWIN, take top 30, update GigaRumble participants list - right?
I really should get all this stuff running from the RoboWiki server. It's funny sometimes when I turn off my laptop for travel, then come back online and see a few @roborumble tweets come in. ;)
As a note, I just updated robocode-archive.strangeautomata.com to ensure that participants-latest.zip always includes versions in the GigaRumble participants list as well as the other versions. This is to cover the case of the main participants list getting a new version before GigaRumble.
(Also tomorrow makes for the 1-year anniversary of the cron job for robocode-archive.strangeautomata.com being started, and hasn't failed since :))

I nominate the following robots for admission into the GigaRumble: Nene, Neuromancer, CunobelinDC, RaikoMX, and SandboxDT.
If anyone else would like to nominate a robot for the GigaRumble, feel free to use this thread to do so.
Well, Nene has more than earned its place at #11 in PL. As for the others, my vote is definitely to stick to "top x bots" instead of hand picking bots we like.
Top 50 would include all those bots... I still like 30 and personally feel like even that's erring on the high side. (A bot at #30 has almost no chance vs DrussGT.) What do other people think?
For:
- Nene, top 10 bot. I have no problems with someone entering it, but its turned for simple bots.
Against:
- SandboxDT, impressive for its age. But not impressive enough.
- RaikoMX, see SandboxDT.
- Neuromancer, great at Melee, only decent in One on One.
- CunobelinDC, entering it in the gigarumble just isn't fair.
Nominating:
- Seraphim, decent post-debug, holds #10 Vote and #22 PL (PWIN). Tuned against surfers originally.
If you want Sandbox DT you should do a separate "Classics" league. ;)
That crossed my mind too. :-) Then I thought it's kind of silly to have an active rumble for bots that never get updated. And also, how to treat a bot like Shadow? Totally classic, but updated a lot more recently than others like DT.
It's not a sign of disrespect to leave those bots out of a "strongest bots rumble". Pretty sure most of those authors would want to earn their spot anyway, if they were active.
I should know better than to even look at the results after so few battles, but this already seems pretty interesting: [1].
First thing I notice is Diamond/DrussGT about even in APS, but DrussGT almost 5% ahead in survival. Of course, I start thinking, "maybe some better bullet power management would rocket me ahead of DrussGT!" But my experience is generally that more conservative bullet power selection will increase survival, but tend to lose the same in bullet damage, for the same overall score in the end. Perhaps DrussGT could even gain some score by sacrificing some survival...
Shadow is lower than I expected.
Pris does awesome, as I expected.
This LiteRumble thing is pretty cool! =)
Like I expected, GresSuffurd is dangling at last place. Btw, is there a way to check if a robot extends Robot, without looking in the source?
Given how strong GresSuffurd already is, I bet you could move up to the middle of the pack in a night's work, adding rolling average to surf stats and/or an Anti-Surfer gun.
About Robot, do you mean for accounting for wall collisions in energy tracking? I was just thinking about that the other day (very old "TODO" in Diamond's movement code)...
I'm pretty sure Robocode doesn't tell you, but you could detect it pretty quickly by noticing if a wall collision affects their energy. With gun heat tracking, since most collisions won't happen at gun heat = 0, I bet it would usually take only one wall collision to tell if they're Robot or AdvancedRobot. (A bullet being fired is the only other reason the AdvancedRobot might have lost energy, and you could rule that out.)
