About Me

I'm a mid-level programmer who learned about robocode while doing a school report on artificial intelligence. I've been robocoding since early 2009(I think). Robocode was my first java experience, so I'm not quite as skilled at java as some other people on the wiki. I'm not old enough to be taking advanced math classes such as trig either, so I'm down in that department too. However, I have learned quite a lot while robocoding. I like to spend a lot of time working on random projects that won't result in much. If you have an idea for me, ask about it on my talk page.

What I'm Working On Right Now

For a while I've been focusing on melee(Having lots of fun too!). I'm working on a robot called Lexical that I may or may not end up releasing. It's got pretty good minimum risk movement, taking lots of things into account. I'm also working on a pretty interesting melee gun, more about it later. Still needs a lot of work before it is released though.

My Robots

Active

Acraepheus-My best robot right now, unreleased. I'll fix a disabling bug when I have time.

MagicD2-A nano bot, ranked around 60-70 in the nanorumble.

TybaltMelee-A nano melee robot, with antigravity movement and a reduced linear gun. Around 10th place in the nano melee.

Retired

DolphinAR-My second robot. Uses stop and go movement with multimode guns.

My Projects/Stupid Things I Spend Too Much Time On

Super Sample Bots- A set of bots that are based on the sample bots. They are intended to be the next challenge for beginners after they have a robot that can beat all of the regular sample bots.
