kar: lets play some games.
lets try group4's player.

kar: it seems to stay where it is.

yuan: can we discuss the order of the moves.

edan: we thought of a method of spoofing. if we have a pair of organsims and
another pair of different organisms.

kar: lets play some more games.

kar: so group2 seems to survive and hog the whole board pretty well.
there seems to be lot of variance in the population.

kar: if you were to choose between large variance of population or
stable population, what would you choose.

gp: I would choose the large variance.

ma: As long as it recovers from small population, its the area under the curve
that matters.

adam: I dont agree, you would lose group when there are other players.

lu: its not independent. If you have a large variance and have a large
population, that means the opponent has a small population.

el: a point to note is that our player stays at a large population
for a long long time.

edan: in times of less food, some organisms may sacrifice for the other
organisms of their player.

rooz: think of nature there are lot of examples when large population
or large amounts of food are bad for the group.

kar: you can deliberately program your organisms to have varying behaviour
and some would survive and some would not.

jw: we can use the queen bee analogy where the species ensures the survival
of queen bee which in turn means that the species survives.

kar: yes and you can generalize it to have many queen bees.

mb: have some which reproduce fast, and have some which save energy
and when the food becomes scarce, these can reproduce fast and hog up all
the board.

kar: lets see some more players
so g1's player seems to survive mostly except in very harsh situations.

kar: lets talk about deliverables.

ma: maybe have a player that uses the state.

rooz: a player that can survive in a harsher climate.

kar: so lets have a more robust player which also adjusts when the other
parameters which we havent touched today are also changed.

kar: as an alternative you could demonstrate a coordinated activity
which you can demonstrate.

kar: what so you think you might get done by Tuesday ?

adam: trying to cover the board but not too much, maybe in a checker-board
configuration.

mb: have a differentiated population.

andy: using communication to optimize strategies.
also if you see an isolated soul, you can surround it and strangle it.
