You can get them at http://www.gamedev.net/community/contest/gdarena/entries/GDArenaBetaBots.zip. I would definitely be interested in seeing any results of your tests with them playing each other in your own tournament type competitions. I''m curious if the tournament we are seeing unfold is "accurate". It''s definitely fun..

you can download a complete list of the fights stats here (there was no skipped round/match and they are listed in the order they where played

edit: Dustbot has killed 50 not 48, so there may be more slight errors...and the result is based on the matches and not the kills!

Yah... I did my own set of pre-tournament calculations, testing pretty much every seed combo... anyway, here are the placings I came up with...

(best)
Dustbot
Hexagon
Mushu
Nosfera2
LiquidIntell
HuBot
(worst)

I did this before the release of either Tailslide or the new bots, but I was really suprised when I killed Hexagon, and was crushed when I saw that I was up against Dustbot next..

Good matches everyone! Hope to see you in GDArean 2: Vengence.
