From the rules page:

"Access to game servers where they can test their bot and compete against other bots"

Does this mean that teams will be able to run their bot an unlimited number of times against other bots before the actual competition?

I'm wondering whether neural network/genetic algorithm approaches will be feasible given the testing infrastructure.

Hi

Unfortunately due budget constraints we can't allow unlimited access to test game servers. Do you have an estimate on how many rounds would you need to evolve the algorithm enough?
