I'm told this contest may be rerun... ...anyone interested in building an entry? Sounds like a fun project for those not doing C4 or Marble v4. (URL) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Hello everybody.
 
Hi everyone... some of you may have met me at rtl14 or the dinner. Those that didn't may refer to me as 'that guy' or simply 'hey you'. I've been reading the posts for a while on the connect4 game, so I just wanted to throw in my $0.02. Unless (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Who's that? Never heard of him. (...) Ivan, we all know that wasn't you, for two reasons. 1) There's this thing about games, they require that you stay within the boundaries of the playing field to avoid DQ. The boundaries here are the (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.off-topic.test.foo)

You'll have to go in and look. When I picked up 4403 & 4404 & 8465, 7194, 8475, and 4561 were still there. Even a 3038/8266 and a 4589 IIRC. Phew. :) I have Yoda and RC Buggy. And I have a Backhoe on order from them and no one will pry it off my (...) (21 years ago, 20-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

if i could post and read lugnet like I used to BEFORE that dumb worm virus hit. that would be cool. it would also be neat if my wife would not lay a guilt trip on me so I can reply to posts as they appear.

  For those that couldn't make it...
 
to my housewarming party--I finally got pics of my abode up on my website. You'd think that if taking pictures and posting 'em on the internet is one of my favourite hobbies, I'd have done this sooner, but, eh, whatrya gonna do? Anyways, see pics of (...)

Quoting Derek Raycraft <djr@rogers.com>: (...) I believe the rules say "Decide who goes first". (21 years ago, 22-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Connect 4 Boards
 
(...) That's what I feared. I know there are at least two colours of boards (one that's all blue with red and yellow chips, and one with blue and yellow with red and black chips) and now I guess there's different chips too. Aaargh. (...) That sounds (...) (21 years ago, 22-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Connect 4 Boards
 
(...) Well I have no knowledge of what the tradition for red vs. black is, so my suggestion is just arbitrary. Now that I think about it, maybe the Connect 4 rules say which colour goes first. If they do, that's the colour we should go by. Derek (21 years ago, 22-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Connect 4 Boards
 
(...) Actually, that brings up a question I meant to ask. Does the bot need to know what color it's playing, or can I tell it (via download/IR) what color we're playing in this match? (21 years ago, 22-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Connect 4 Boards
 
(...) Sounds good. The board we've been playing with has the chips that lock together. (...) Huh. I was always taught in a red vs black game, that "Smoke goes before fire". But you're the 2nd person to say that red goes first, maybe Mom was wrong?! (...) (21 years ago, 22-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Connect 4 Boards
 
Well I discovered over the weekend that there are two different types of connect 4 pieces. My parents happened to have two boards, each with a different style of chip. Fortunately both chip styles are the same basic size, shape and colour. One type, (...) (21 years ago, 22-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
