Abstract

The rules now answer the tank that shot at them before a nearer one that has not fired. On G20 they pass 72% of 200 seeds where they passed 44%; no other gauntlet moved; the census of the change against its absence reads −0.57 ± 0.77 a seat and the families hold.

I. Intent

Of the boundary's five, Paul asked them taught to the rules first, word for word: "Teach the rules the five", and of the floors: "adjust the floors to be what we have now as sucess, so we can create generations from here forwards".

II. Decision log

DecisionCause
The shooter read from hostile direct shells aimed near the tankthe observation carries shells in the air, not who hit whom; a miss says as much as a hit
Ten seconds of memorytwo reloads and a half: the tank that shot is still the one that shoots
A dial, w_shooterCLAUDE.md, either/or is a scalar
The defence takes it as four tiles nearer a unitG20's tank was defending, where the target was the nearest alone; the first dial, in the score only, moved nothing
Default 2the sweep: 72% at 2, no more above
G20's floor to 0.60the floors are today's success, at Paul's word

III. Method

G20 for the rules, 200 seeds from 9,500,000, w_shooter 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 (make scenario, a commander with the dial). Census on this Mac, every map (the paste shim), 48 seeds, the trial w_shooter = 2 and the base w_shooter = 0. every_family_holds_its_floor. The gauntlet for the rules, 200 seeds, every file, before and after. 164 brain tests.

Census −0.57 ± 0.77 a seat; every family holds; the gauntlet unchanged but G20.

V. Discussion

One decision of five, and the rules now meet G20 nearly three times in four. The others want the drive taught (keep out of rings, kite, stay with friends), which is more of the Commander than its target.

VI. What is not built

G18, G19, G21, G22 taught; crucible's hostile and neutral pillboxes; the styles in the gauntlet.

VII. Paul's decisions

Whether to commit and push this; whether the next four follow in the same form.
