kar: lets talk about the improvements..

peter: our player sweeps the board.

kar: lets try some games.

kar: what do ppl think. Would having more players help or not.

zz: I think it'll make it easier

kar: the amount of info is following a logarithmic pattern since whenever
	players meet they are "doubling" their info.
	so we'll need to have tournaments with small and large no. of players.

hari: the number of players as well as the size of the board matters.
	bigger boards mean more searching.

zz: can we have a convention for moving, i.e. which player moves when the
	players are next to each other. we have the convention that the
	player on the larger numbered direction moves.

bogdan: we can have multiple players waiting for each other.

andy: if you see a neighbour flip a coin and move probabilistically

kar: but it takes time.

john: I'd like to make an argument about not having a convention to move
	since there maybe choice which is better but not according to the
	convention.

sasha: we can hang around the place and do something random.

akash: all the moves are simultaneous, so the one in the middle would always move when three players are in a line.

kar: lets play some other players. group9
	comments?

deepti: Our player has a probability of moving randomly and moving in a fixed
direction around the board.  We added features into our player such as
most valuable player stays still after a certain number of rounds until
it meets someone; we fixed the problem of swapping; and we do not go back
and meet the same friend again.  We also checked to see if meeting a
friend again after meeting some players makes a difference, but it did
not change the result by much.

kar: lets do group 1

becky: at first they go horizontal and then diagonal.

kar: player 2. you have some blues and reds.

zz: are the horizontal and vertical roles random?

sasha: yes.

vipul: how do they decide when to stop?

lawrence: we check the trail.

miguel: we can have a timestamps with the trail information.

kar: I think that'll be too specific an information to add.

deepti: why dont we have a decaying trail?

kar: lets move to another topic. lets try some more players.

kar: group 3

vipul: our players go vertical and horizontal

kar: group4

zz: same strategy as everyone else.

john: if you're looking for trail information and following, what if on
	a large board and the board is dirty.

kar: group6

miguel: we put a bound on the number of chase moves when one player is trying
	to get information from another player

kar: lets see player 7

pv: same thing (horizontal, vertical)

kar: lets have all players.

zz: did we have any convention about timeouts.

kar: lets try player 5.

bogdan: our players move vertical and horizontal and then learn the board
	and adapt.

kar: lets try another all player games.
	looks like there's a lot of scope for improvement.

peter: not everyone is doing horizontal-vertical players.

kar: lets talk about deliverables.

zz: bring more ideas...

eric: if everyone submitted a player which does not do horizontal-vertical
	at all.

becky: i think thats a little unfocussed.

eric: the only reason I said that eventually every player is going to evolve their player on the same lines where there can be deadlocks.

bb: maybe we can focus on the single player

kar: how about everybody submit a revised player where there is some thing to
	deal with multiplayer game (deadlocks etc.).

hari: i have a question on scoring.

kar: each player gets the same score equal to the number of rounds.
