Editing Ancients

Robo Home | Changes | Preferences | AllPages

I know we have listed impressive bots elsewhere. But some bots are classic and showed their skills so early that I call them "the ancients". This is just from the top of my head, please help grow the list. -- [[PEZ]]

* TheArtOfWar
* PrairieWolf
* [[Wolverine]]
* [[Yngwie]]
* [[Fermat]]
* SandboxLump
* [[Ares]]
* [[MogBot]]
* [[MorbidPriest]]
* Shera (from the Japanese Robocode Rumble)
* Entangled (same)
* JollyNinja
* [[Duelist]]
* [[Shadow]] (the pre-update one)
* [[et.Predator]] (not to be confused with the microbot)
* [[Rapture]]
* [[RayBot]]
* [[SandboxDT]] - yes, I really think it belongs here now. -- [[PEZ]]

:: It's certainly one of the most important bots in Robocode history, but is it old enough to be an ancient?  It's more of a modern legend, I would say... -- [[Tango]]
:: It has always been around, and almost always on the throne, as long as I have been Robocoding. Which feels like an eternity in itself. -- [[PEZ]]
:: True, it's been there since I started... and I guess that applies to most people here... OK, it's an ancient.  Well done Paul!! -- [[Tango]]
:: Maybe if you call it Sandbox in general that'd be more appropriate. Lump has been around since the Rumble. -- [[Kuuran]]
:: Lump has it's own place on the list, near the top.  I'd let it be there twice, if I were you, I doubt there is much code the same any more. -- [[Tango]]
:: Ahhh! Don't remind me of the Rumble. I want to rewind time so that I would have heard of Robocode in time. -- [[PEZ]]
:: I found out about Robocode a few weeks after the deadline to submit bots in the Rumble. :-( --[[David Alves]]

* [[Vapour]]. Apologies, I felt I had to put this in, certainly more ancient than several of the others up there! -- [[Shrubbery]]
* [[Viper]]
