Blood Ball (sign ups)

[Old Havansk]

A truly inhuman and evil sport played by only the most evil people.

Why do we play it?

It is fun.

Blood Ball
Rules:
Teams consist of 12 players each there is one ball that is worth 50 points to the team that has it at the end of the game. Killing is legal and encouraged (15 points for a K.o. slash death to the other team) but players can drop out by blowing their whistle and leaving the arena (15 points to the other team). It lasts for sixty minutes.

i am developing a scorinator but if any one can make one it would be obliged. One nation can submit up to three clubs (no puppets).

Interested fill out this sheet:

Team 1 name:

If it is popular it might go to the world cup stage.

I just created a simple scorinator for Blood Ball using Python. I can easily expand it to add extra features (and make knockouts more or less common).

Save the following code as "bloodball.py" and then open Python in the same directory as bloodball.py (under Mac OS X, I open terminal and cd to the directory using 'cd ~/Documents' if I saved it in documents and then type 'python' as Python comes preinstalled). An interactive python shell should open. Next, type 'from bloodball import *'. You can now type 'score(x,y)' where x and y are the team strengths in floating point format e.g. score(105.0, 100.0).

Code: Select all

import random

def ko(a, b):
   k=0
   for i in range(12):
      if random.random() < (a/(a+b)):
         k+=1
   return k

def score(a, b):
   j=ko(a,b)
   k=ko(b,a)
   x=15*j
   y=15*k
   if (random.random() < (a*(12-k))/((a*(12-k))+(b*(12-j)))):
      x+=50
   else:
      y+=50
   s = 'Team 1 made ' + repr(j) + ' knockouts while Team 2 made ' + repr(k) + ' knockouts. The final score was ' + repr(x) + ' to ' + repr(y) + '.'
   print(s)



Make sure you don't miss the last empty line when you copy and paste the above code.

Cheers my version was very bugged, is it possible to work on windows?

So I looked up the easiest way, and it seems to be to install ActivePython: http://www.activestate.com/activepython/downloads

Once you do that, you can start up a python interpreter (should be one of the executables that gets installed, probably IDLE or something), and then copy and paste the python code and press return:

Code: Select all

import random

def ko(a, b):
   k=0
   for i in range(12):
      if random.random() < (a/(a+b)):
         k+=1
   return k

def score(a, b):
   j=ko(a,b)
   k=ko(b,a)
   x=15*j
   y=15*k
   if (random.random() < (a*(12-k))/((a*(12-k))+(b*(12-j)))):
      x+=50
   else:
      y+=50
   s = 'Team 1 made ' + repr(j) + ' knockouts while Team 2 made ' + repr(k) + ' knockouts. The final score was ' + repr(x) + ' to ' + repr(y) + '.'
   print(s)



Once you do that, you can simply type 'score(108.0, 97.0)' and press return. By copying and pasting, you don't have to worry about using the DOS command line.
