I'll qualify for the three challenges, I'll write robots that can
battle using AIM protocol in less then 10 lines of code...
:D

Excellent Bjornke!
I just warmed up with a multi-Parts permutation to targeted Sum
(or any function) best-fit optimizer including a divide and conquer
algorithm... To be presented soon... lots of testing cause
i can't afford the support time ;)
The roboWar game is tempting me seriously...
It's got to come down to the Art of Warrior Objects...
Add a weapons and recog layer, strip it down,
add forcefields and neutron cannons ;)
aaaah, the imagination is flowing ;)
2D or 3D ? Infinite space allowed ? ;)
See why i mentioned the above optimizer...

The 10 lines cool code too but hmmm not another clock ;)
Maybe a bot ;)
Another IM... I was planning to write one for my own
bots...
I hope we're tested based on age and jedi-level
or newbies will stand a poor chance...
Let's foster revolutionaries' imagination ;)

Hi all
The Chatrev coding contest (CCC) is now underway!
ChatRev is a chat written entirely in RunRev. Information
about it can be found here: http://chatrev.bjoernke.com
There are 3 Challenges. You can of course participate in all
challenges, if you like, but I suggest that you concentrate
on one challenge, and make it work as good as you can. It's
also important to know that even an unfinished Product may
win a prize, so if you get the feeling you can't finish, send
it in anyway, maybe you're lucky!
please send questions to my e-Mail: bvg AT mac DOT com It
would also be nice to have an e-Mail about your
participation, but this is not mandatory.
Simple:
Make something nifty within 10 lines of code.
The goal of this challenge is to let coders of every
experience participate, with a real chance to win.
It will last 1 week until next monday.
There are 2 example stacks, to show how you could do it at:
http://contest.wecode.org/cgi-bin/contest.cgi?simple
Advanced:
This challenge wants you to code a RoboWar clone.
It's a game where people can program "bots", that battle each other.
You got 4 weeks to make your game, if you want to participate
in this challenge.
