Undecided. I was kind of disappointed with the results of this one, but I’m not optimistic that another one would end up any better unless it has a better structure. I plan to run another tournament if I come up with a way to change the rules that would make it easier to submit effective programs, which I have not made any progress on so far. Some people have made suggestions in the comments, but they range from probably not helpful to difficult to implement.
Sorry if this was answered somewhere else, but do you plan on hosting another tournament? If so, when?

Would-be submitters have a lot more information going forward. In particular: if you want to win, you have to be able to beat a random bot.
