During my boredom phase of the day, I went on wikipedia.... I found something I never expected to exist.... No it's official! There is a 'Powder Game' article on wikipedia (no Dan-Ball found, Stick Ranger status: Unknown)! I think we should assemble several people, probably from the wiki, so we can try and cram as much into one powder game article as possible, from instructions to information to logic systems, etc. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powder_game |

I'll help! We should continue the style of the "List of Elements" for the "List of Objects" and "List of Function" by adding small explanations in one sentence. The "Uploading" section is too detailed for Wikipedia. It is nearly a how-to, which is something what you should not find on a Wikipedia article. Mentioning "soccerking" is inappropriate (yes, sorry but it's true). I think this section should more likely be called Uploads. Then you can write about the function itself (which is already in the first paragraph. The importance for the game, like building up a community, sharing good ideas and stuff like this is completely missing. The requirements (account) can also be part. But there should not be five paragraphs, which are telling you, how difficult it is to upload, and what is the best way how to come around with these problems. And finally the link to danball.wikia.com/wiki/Powder_Game is missing ... ;-) I'll change some stuff tomorrow! /me |

Langton's Ant, huh? The article on that says that a single ant is Turing complete and can be used to simulate boolean gates. "Ant Tech" - possible?

It's pattern is a lot differnt from the simulation at the bottom of page (online demonstration of langungtons ant) but it's pattern seems simular to the colored one.

Don't the calculator guys already use ants in their calculators? I've seen atleast 2.

I don't know exactly, secret: Langdon's ant follows:
If ant meets a charged block, it goes forward one and left
If ant meets a different block, it goes forward one and right
Or something of the sort. Listo's ant makes a patter both similar and different from the ant structure (I have no idea what his rules are)

Oh noes! The article, it's been deleted by haters! (JK about the haters part, they deleted it because it wasn't "notable enough" and was "too much like a manuel". :-(
