Title: Finally signed up
Post by Belteshazzar on Mar 15^th, 2010, 10:36pm

I guess it's time to say hello. I discovered Arimaa via Wikibooks a few months ago, and downloaded the free ultra-weak version of Fotland's program and eventually became able to beat it nearly every time. So now I'm here. I breezed through a few bots, then it got tougher, and now I seem to have hit a wall. My most recent win (http://arimaa.com/arimaa/gameroom/opengamewin.cgi?client=1&gameid=137943&role=v&side=w) was a fluke, due to bot Loc2007P2 submitting an illegal move (in case anyone wants to check on that.)

I've had an interest in board games for a while, but have never gotten very far with any, and am determined to make Arimaa the one that I excel at.

Welcome to the Arimaa community. Looks like you are off to a good start against the bots. Loc2007P2 does have some bugs that occasionally show up. But just play it again if you want to win without any flukes. Best of luck climbing the bot ladder.
