Borg page is back up

BTW, You guys are killing me. Who decided it was a good idea to move torch fuel turns to the item->timeout instead of old school item->pval. I'm going to program the borg to spit on the pizza of the guys who decided to do that.

I would assume that they did it to accomodate ego torches/lanterns. Or perhaps to cause dismay to the legions of good borgs who label and store precious slime molds.

Just to put this out there, I'd love to have an OSX version of this.

Ya, and too bad my old ISP deleted the Winners page. It listed the various winners and the turn numbers.

The Wayback machine has some (?all) borg pages from 2008

Some comments

Ok, well after almost a week of borg activity, I thought I'd post a few things I've noticed. When reviewing the borg log, it struck me that the borg really sucks at playing mages. They die usually by level one or two. Now, obviously mages are more squishy, but that's why they are played differently, especially at low levels. What I'm wondering is if the borg is programmed to play mages differently in order to account for their general squishiness, and if so how.

Warriors, Paladins, and Rangers seem to do the best (although rogues sometimes do ok) but I've noticed a lot of them die towards the mid-20s (the highest so far was 27 when he died) and about 90% of these so far have died from hounds of one sort or another, so I wasn't sure if this was completely coincidental or if for some reason the various hounds cause some special difficulty for the borg's AI.

Anyways, sorry for the WoT post, but I really enjoy your borg and just thought I would mention these couple of things.

There are several class based strategies peppered throughout the code.
