...lost text WTF!!!!!! I SPENT SO MUCH TIME WRITING THIS!!!...
...stuff on Battlecode...We have to find a way to fix this. I then spent even more time trying to write a recursive method for building a staircase to flux deposits so that our archons could collect flux faster. Can you say stack overflow? Geza took over that piece of code, and he's still working on it currently.
Originally, Anton and I didn't want Geza on our team because he's really awkward socially, but he's been invaluable to our team and fun to code with once you get past the "layer of pure cs" as Anton puts it. Props to Geza for joining our team the last second.
As the deadline of submission for the seeding tournament (9PM) approached, our code was as buggy as hell, so you just uploaded a simple but "functional" version of our code. Then we realized that they extended the deadline to 1AM, we scrammed to finished the cannon ai and fix up workers. Neither task was accomplished, so we didn't upload anything new :(.
Monday afternoon was the seeding tournament. We were seeded last going into the seeding tournament. This was because we were really stupid and decided to scrimmage only once and lost. Thus our record was 0-1. If we had scrimmaged 3 more times, we would have went up at least 20 ranks. That's because the seeding was divided into 2 tiers. The top tier consisted of players who scrimmaged 4 or more times. And the reason we were seeded last is because a lot of people didn't scrimmage at all, so their record was 0-0, which was better than our record >.<. So we went into the tournament expected anal rape, but we WON our first match!!! (against a player who ran into our channelers and didn't have any worker code.... but we can forget that detail). In round 2, we were matched against the number 1 seed "gtg ice skating lessons" (Spenser Skates, my ATS big, was in that team) because of our horrible rank T.T. They fucked us like there was no tomorrow. Our channelers didn't work at all for reason reason, and they just hunted us down and raped us. Not even funny. I decided to leave early watch seeing Cathy's 2nd match, which she lost :(. Outside the room, I had a chat with Spenser about Battlecode. He was saying how his entire team was dedicated to get top 8 in the tournament and how they started to work immediately. He gave encouraging words and said how the road to success is forming a team of people dedicated to winning. Nice guy.
I decided that I needed a mental health day after a hellish weekend, so I went back to MacG and watched The Shield and took a short nap. I then went to Next house for dinner with the crew (Anton said I was complaining about ordering in Chinese for some reason). I planned on working on my Media Lab UROP last night (tonight?), but we started talking about classes, so I decided to make my schedule which doesn't seem as packed as last semester, expect for the 3 hour 6.01 lab (wtf). I really want to take Rhetoric because it's a cool subject and a Ci-H, but that would be my 5th class, and I would have to petition for extra credit (assuming I can get in because it's not listed under open HASS-D classes). Arghh spring semester starts so soon. The rest of the night Jenny, Peter, and I photoshopped using this awesome tutorial. It was ridiculously fun, and instead of making a logo for ITASA, Jenny and I made name avatars for ourselves, while Peter stuck to the task. I made a "dark archon" spray for caelym:
It's too pink imo :( but it looks really cool. We need a weekly Photoshop night :D
About a hour ago, I was looking at TL cribs, and some people have NICE places, which makes me want to make my room more personal. But I might not even be staying in MacG... When I do get to decorating my room I definitely want to the the Centrifugal Force print from xkcd.
Things I need to do: finished chicken, do laundry, BATTLECODE, UROP
Things I want to do: watch The Shield, watch Ip Man, find summer internship, sleep
I also temporary solved my water problem by taking a gallon of water left over from G-entry game night.
Shit there were some stuff I wanted to write, but the fucking buggy blogger website made me lose my train of thought. Damn!
P.S. BLOGGER IS SO BUGGY TODAY!!! WHAT THE FUCK!!!
