Bringing this newsgroup back to the important stuff...
(moderators checking in on li'l ol' us: ye-ouch! I still appreciate you
Iain, and the lewdness of your anagrams, inappropriate tho they may be,

I get home last night, after thinking about my 'bot all weekend...
for I completed the programming for the initial scan of the board last
Thursday and really didn't have an opportunity to look at it until last night :(
So I get home from work, and *not* log onto EQ (which is a huge
sacrifice--level 51 and yet so close to 52 ranger in the lands of Norrath)
and turn on the 'bot and the laptop.
"If I only tweak this little part of the program..."
1 a.m.....
"Wow, it works!"*
*clarify:
Using the Anti-X pattern, the Runamok 'bot did the scanning and all the
placing in 50 seconds.
So must work harder to kick Magno's butt!
There you are... now I have a month to work on it.

| WELL, this just in. I know that many people are working fast and furious on x-robots. i also know that When you build a robot (for speed) , you have no idea how your robot compares. SO For all the lurkers and secret robot builders, I would like to (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
