| Variant query Calvin 02:06:11 |
| | HI
Fischer random chess (aka 960) has suggested this idea- is there a variant
using the standard map but placing the supply centres (home and/or
neutral) in different/random provinces?

cheers,

| Seeking old game name.. Doug McIntyre 22:09:39 |
| | Its been bugging me for the longest time about a game I had for my
Apple II way back when.
I seem to remember the name as Psychosphere, but anything close to
that name comes up totally different.
It was pure interactive fiction text, no graphics that I remember,
although I could be mistaken, any graphics would be very crude Apple II.
The plot started out with you knowing nothing about an alien space
ship. There were rooms with mist, and tendrils of something coming
down from the ceiling, and different colored access cards.
I remember myself not getting very far.
Any hits on this? Or is it something I made up in my memory?

| pmars-server a bit limited for testing all warriors at once. Skybuck Flying 18:16:33 |
| | Hello,
Today I modified my evolver so all warriors battle each other at once in one
go.
Some limitations learned:
Windows command line input is limited to 8 KB, which is not a lot.
(This could be solved a little bit by using short filenames)
However pmars-server has serious limitations as well...
It can only battle a few warriors at the same time... maybe 10 or 20 or so ?
But that's not enough.
It should be able to handle 100 maybe even 1000 and maybe even 10000
warriors at the same time... (for the last one bigger core maybe ;))
It's really too limited.
My evolver assumes the first 3 warriors can be copied unmodified... so I am
gonna call it quits... and wait for a good corewar simulator that can handle
loads of stuff maybe via api or so ;)
Bye,
Skybuck.

| Re: IF on a mini laptop RootShell 15:08:51 |
| | Elly escreveu:
Does anyone here play IF on a mini? If so, can you recommend one and say why you've done so: I'm thinking of buying it just for this purpose and all information would be most appreciated. Thank you, Elly
Hi Elly
I bought the Asus eeePC 901 (linux version)!
Why ?
- Small size
- 7 hours on battery
- Less than 1kg weight
- Wireless/cable network
- USB ports (I use a 8GB pen on it with IF games)
- Memory cards slots (to have even more disc space)
- VGA Output (to connect to bigger screen if needed)
- Very beautifull laptop 
Downs:
- Small Keyboard if you have BIG fingers
- It's not a dual 2 core processor, things run at different pace (but
fast enough for IF games)
- The linux operating system that it's factory shipped is very bad, I
instaled a Ubuntu 8.10 USB bootable pen drive distribution, available on
the web, and with a few simple steps, my Asus EeePC 901 was running the
great Ubuntu 8.10 linux distribution. with the added bonus that I can
install software easily, and I did... I7, Gargoyle, and I can play the
games without a delay, lag or slowless.
Conclusion:
The small beautifull Asus eeePC 901 is very good for IF.
I recently played some of the IFComp08 games on it, specially this
year's IFComp winner "Violet".
I also heard from a co-worker, that the new LG X-110 is also very good,
but I haven't got my hands on it yet ;)
BTW: I found this review of the Asus EeePC 901 (windows xp version) very
informative: http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4530
Kind regards,
RootShell

| OQFTCI Game 10 R4,6: animal/fruit/mineral, cafe culture Mark Brader 18:55:30 |
| | Reminder: for this game I'm overlapping the time intervals for
successive question sets. At the time of posting, Rounds 2-3 are
still open for answers. They will close about 3 days after they
were posted (not 2 days as I said at the time).
These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2003-03-24.
I will accept the answers that were correct then and there. If you
know that a question is out of date and a different answer is now
correct, please say so (either along with your answers, or in a
separate posting afterwards) and I will also accept that answer.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers in a single followup to the newsgroup,
based only on your own knowledge.
See my September 22 companion posting "Old Questions from the
Canadian Inquisition (OQFTCI)" for further details. I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.
I did not write these rounds.
Game 10, Round 4: Science - Animal, Fruit, or Mineral?
These questions refer to the handout at:
http://torquiz.freeshell.org/2003-1/questions/game10/animalfruitmineral.pdf
1. Arrange fossils A, B, and C into chronological order, oldest
first.
2. Arrange fossils D, E, and F into chronological order, oldest
first.
For the next 4 questions, we give you a letter, and you must name
the corresponding fruit.
3. G.
4. J.
5. K.
6. M.
And for the last 4 questions, we name a gemstone, and you must give
the corresponding letter.
7. Turquoise.
8. Opal.
9. Peridot.
10. Malachite.
Game 10, Round 6: Sports/Leisure/Idleness - Caf culture
1. Name the left-bank Parisian boulevard frequented by existentialist
loafers in the 1950s, where you could have seen Jean-Paul Sartre
sitting and thinking at the Caf des Deux Magots.
2. This Italian city was the first European city to import coffee.
On one side of its famous square is Caff Florian, founded in
1720, where conspirators used to hatch plots against the Austrians
who frequented Caff Quadri across the square. Name the city.
3. Legend has it that in this African country a goatherd first
discovered coffee berries and then passed on the secret to
some monks. In real life, before the Arabs discovered how to
brew hot coffee, the people of this goatherd's country drank
cold fermented coffee. What country is it?
4. Which Yemeni port held the monopoly on coffee exports from the
Arabian Peninsula through the 15th to 17th centuries? A kind
of coffee as well as a blend of coffee with another beverage
both take their name from this port.
5. What country has been the world's biggest coffee producer since
the 19th century?
6. According to legend, the bakers of Vienna saved the city from
the Turks in 1683, and as a reward, they were allowed to bake
a pastry based on an image that appears on the Turkish flag.
What is this pastry?
7. A poet named a poem he published in 1917 after an effete character
who haunts society drawing rooms. The character complains:
"I have measured out my life with coffee spoons." Name either
the poet or the title character.
8. Who composed the Coffee Cantata in 1734, a tale of a naughty
German girl who refuses to give up coffee drinking? It is one
of this composer's few secular cantatas.
9. Suppose you're in a Starbucks. Let's say you want a coffee.
You've got the choice of three sizes: in alphabetical order
they are grande, tall, and venti. Arrange these three Starbucks
sizes in order from smallest to largest.
10. Name the coffeehouse that used to exist at 134 Yorkville,
owned by Bernie Fiedler, where countless musicians got their
start in the 1960s and 70s.

I believe that I should have received 4 points for this question also, since I also answered "from the Last Supper."
Ah, interesting. This was actually a technical problem that I did not

| We Don't Need No Steenkin' Coders! Ploi the Insane 09:01:01 |
| | Oh, sure...
We *could* use a few good coders.
But what we *really* need in Frontier are players.
And lot's of 'em.
With three guilds, eight custom races, and two dozen established quests,
Frontier is a solidly built world waiting for adventurers to explore
and -- once they reach wizardhood -- expand upon.
Yes, you heard right.
You can *earn* your way to a coding position just by playing.
Other sites may offer these positions outright, but we think it takes
more than an ability to churn code to do well.
Your immersion into the world of Frontier as a player gives you an insight
into the balance of the game and of how you might maintain that balance
while creating whole new areas for future players to explore.
We'd love to see you code up something fabulous.
Just drop on by. And play.
We're also home to the LPMUD Purity Test. Check out our web site and see
just how corrupt you really are.
http://www.frontier.mudservices.com/
frontier.mudservices.com 7680

Either way, we want you to have fun.

| Life is about surviving, not killing. Skybuck Flying 09:04:26 |
| | Hello,
New scoring system to focus on life, instead of killing.
1 point for life.
0 point for death.
Let's take a look at the following situation:
Warrior1: Cockroach.
Warrior2: Human.
Warrior3: Cow.
Warrior1: Survives cockroach, ties 100%
Warrior1: Survives human, ties 100% to 99% (human maybe stepped on cockroach
once)
Warrior1: Survives cow, ties 100% to 99% (cow maybe stepped on cockroach
once)
Cockroach points: close to 300%
Warrior2: Human ties against cockroach gets 100%
Warrior2: Human destroys cow, gets 100%
Warrior2: Human destroys itself 50%, gets only 50%
Human points: 250%
Warrior3: Cow ties with coackroach 100%
Warrior3: Cow dies against human, 0%
Warrior3: Cow ties with cow, 100%
Cow points: 200%
First place: cockroach.
Second place: human.
Third place: cow.
Now let's compare this to the current scoring system:
Warrior1: Survives cockroach ties 100 points.
Warrior1: Survives human ties 100 points.
Warrior2: Survives cow ties 100 points.
Cockroach points: 300.
Warrior2: Human ties cockroach ties 100 points.
Warrior2: Human wins 50%, gets 50x2 points = 100 points.
Warrior2: Human destroys cow, gets 100x2 points = 200 points.
Human points: 400 points.
Warrior3: Cow ties cockroach ties 100 points.
Warrior3: Cow loses against human 0 zero points.
Warrior3: Cow ties cow ties 100 points.
Cow points: 200 points.
From an evolutionary point of view the current scoring system doesn't make
much sense.
The cow is a dumb beast easy killable by the human... therefore the human
gets many many more points... but was it really that hard to do ?
The cockroach which is a true survivor gets less points... indicating
something is wrong... so far the cockroach can be considered the superior
lifeform since it's the oldest know living thing on the planet ? or
something like that lol
So I would be interested in seeing a new hill where the focus is not on
killing persee... but on surviving ! ;)
So a simple scoring system like:
1 for life
0 for death
Should be just enough ! ;)
Bye,
Skybuck.
