Were there any bots that participated in One Million Chessboards? I remember people building some automation around One Million Checkboxes to do some crazy animation stuff, I wonder if that was attempted with One Million Chessboards.

Also, if One Million Chessboards started with some bots making moves, that could solve the cold-start problem mentioned under "a lack of awe", although I can also see how existence of bots might be a deterrent for some people.
