re: PL crown
Diamond 1.6.17 gets 51.39 over 105 battles (so far) against Tomcat 3.48c. Losing with 49.36 against the latest DrussGT, so it may be a 3-way tie if Tomcat beats DrussGT.
I'll work on resolving that "problem" soon. ;)
Good luck, i think (or hope?) you need it, because i have two ideas, which must hit and brings me behind 88% APS:P But there're a little problems - both ideas need in God's blessing:)
I've made advances in PL for XanderCat, and think with a little more work I could land a solid 4th place in PL, but I'll have to do something significant to challenge any of the top 3. Nevertheless, despite averaging around 45, I did beat Diamond in one match for the latest version with a score of 57; I can't help but wonder if that gave Voidious a scare. :-)
I did notice (nice work!), but honestly I'm too busy being scared of DrussGT and Tomcat right now to worry about anyone else. =) And when it takes a few hundred battles vs DrussGT to eke out gains a tiny bit at a time, I just don't have the CPU power to focus on too many opponents at once, even if I wanted to...
