The Stanford Graphics Quake Project is relieved to announce that
version 1.0 of the Stanford StoogeBot has been released.

The StoogeBot is a client-side proxy bot for use with Quake.  The
StoogeBot, which might be more accurately described as a cyborg,
combines the intelligence of a human player with the accuracy of a
computer, allowing you to navigate and strategize while it aims and
fires.

The resulting half-human, half-computer player is usually all but
unstoppable in deathmatch or teamplay.  It's also a hell of a lot of
fun to watch in action.

Versions for Linux, Windows 95, Windows NT, and SGI Irix 6.x are
available on the SGQP web page:

The StoogeBot includes some features that make it easy to identify; it
is also easy to ban the StoogeBot from your server if you prefer
bot-free games.  See the web pages for more details.
