After going away from the computer I realized that this probably would allow some thing like this:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
POPCNT=`grep -c 'popcnt' /proc/cpuinfo`
## Check for popcnt support in the CPU
if [ $POPCNT -gt 0 ]
then
echo "popcnt supported" 1>&2
PROG="./marwin_popcnt"
else
echo "popcnt not supported" 1>&2
PROG="./marwin_no_popcnt"
fi
## Call the appropriate binary
$PROG $@
|
|
If that's the case then it's just a matter of providing two binaries to go along with the script.

The bot games seem to be terribly exciting. Do you think it would be a good idea to commentate one of the WCC games between two of the leading bots if such a game occurs at a spectator-friendly time?

That would be great. Just post here or send me a message if you find a game that suits your time. It would be great if the bot developers could join in as well.

Do you schedule the WCC games at a fixed time? I hope that my schedule will be completely flexible next week, so I should be able to assist Greg for Monday's WC game if he's looking for a co-commentator, and hopefully a WCC game as well... What would be a good time for spectators (if you can pick up a spectator-friendly slot for a game involving two fof marwin, sharp and briareus for example)?
EDIT: oh my bad, Monday's game is at 3am my time, I thought it was much earlier. Was it rescheduled?

I usually schedule the WCC games at a time that is convienient for me so that I can keep an eye on the games in case of a problem. The times are usually 15:00 GMT and 19:00 GMT on weekdays. If you let me know what time is convenient for you, I can set it up for that.
I don't think the time for the hanzack - Nombril game changed.

It was 17 hours later when it was scheduled.

hanzack-Nombril has not moved. But the spreadsheet and Google Calendar were originally showing the game 12 hours earlier then the gameroom time.

I guess I must have confused it with a WCC game or something.

I must have confused with another game as well.
I could commentate on the marwin-sharp game, if you can setup the radio relay Omar! I'm very much looking for co-commentators, be they bot programmers or not. I'll give a shot at recording as well.

I wouldn't commit to commentating any of the CC games until the bug that causes the game client to miss moves until refreshed, which has been plaguing all of these games so far, has been fixed.

It appears that the bug is fixed, at least it's not happening in the current WCC game.

That made it relatively clear which bots were the top two and therefore should advance to qualifying, but there was presumably still some luck involved. I'm going to go out on a limb to predict that with four lives for each bot, the situation won't repeat. At least one of the top two bots (presumably sharp and marwin) will lose a game to a bot that doesn't finish in the top two. |

If sharp wins another game before getting eliminated, then my prediction about the lack of clear dominance will have come true. I think the odds are in my favor. But my other prediction (that sharp would repeat as champion) is looking like a long shot now that sharp is in third place.
