Annoying... I've made an Über-Nano bot that gets 99% against N, but I'm stuck at 283 bytes... Awesomeness 01:29, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Post the source. I'm a past master at reducing codesize on bots. Hell, I wrote the original articles over at the repository and codesize tricks that spurred the nanobot explosion. I'd love some new blood in the nano area while I grit my teeth over Infinity/Dustbunny and how to make them just 1% better :) --Miked0801 03:56, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Edit: WAIT A SEC! I FORGOT TO DELETE PART OF MY OLD COUNTING CODE! What if I delete it? I hope it'll be enough! Awesomeness 11:33, 30 April 2009 (UTC) Okay, changed the code. 278 bytes.... lol Awesomeness 11:44, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
