Overall league thoughts

jknilinux:
OK, who wants no repop (allowing farming), and who wants the veggy population to be artificially controlled with repops enabled?

I'm for no repop.

bacillus:
Me too.

jknilinux:
Um...
that's 2-0

Thanks to everyone who voted!

OK, seriously, here's where everyone leans:

jknilinux, bacillus, ikke, moonfisher - No repop

abyaly, peter, ?Numsgil? - artificial control

I put Numsgil with abyaly and peter to show that no repop still wins even if Nums agrees with you two.

If we got shvarz, d-evo, peterb etc... to voice their opinions, though, this might be more representative.

moonfisher-
Hmmm. I agree. Let's start out with 100 veggies.

Or, wait a sec- can't we define the bot's starting positions?
How about the bots start on the top-left and bottom-left corners, and the veggies all on the right side?

And what about extra starting energy, in case they're meant to be a MB/ant and need to repro? Besides, they need to go for a while before they find food- we don't want to have a two-bot endurance walk; we want to see them compete after they find food. Just an idea.

d-EVO:
Im for no repop

Will make it more simple and the resources will be more valuable

P.S. maby a rule for the NNbot leage would be to only alow the bot to start of with random weights and values in the neurons.
I think this will encourage bots to 'learn'

bacillus:
This idea was already sort of ruled out with the dogfighting league, but what about a league where reproduction is turned off, there are no veggies and each bot (initial of 1 per species) starts out with 30000 nrg?

The problem is that when the veggies run out, it sort of comes down to this.
