We (clan Aesir) have a beta version of our bot AE_Playmate

running on our server, urda7.tf.hut.fi. He even has a

homepage of his own, at www.tf.hut.fi/~ath/Aesir/bot.html,

where you can find some more information about this project.

He's quite limited at the moment, but still manages to score

some frags now and then. Due to a few bugs he occasionally

dumps core, so we won't guarantee that he stays connected

for very long. Check him out if you like, and send us your

comments.

If anybody has another bot somewhere please mail us, since

it would be interesting to see how well Playmate would cope

against another bot.
