Shouldn't the icons be yellow, grey, brown? Instead of orange, green, pink?

But a good contest nonetheless.

The next contest should be a little spiced up. Maybe the next tourney could be based on AMAI, or we could be challenged to write a custom AI from the ground up with JASS( I happen to have some experience in this :)).

Well, the idea of AMAI is interesting, but I don't know how to develop one AI contest with this system (development, testing, etc). I'm going to ask Strategy Master about this, he could give me an idea.

JASS AI sounds me too. I'll think about it, but probably for a third AI tournament.

I was thinking in developing a new AI contest based on 2v2 fights, where each contestant develop 2 AIs which helps each other to defeat other AIs team. It really would be interesting and more variated in surprising results. In this tournament, the contestants will help to do the evaluation of the AIs by saving replays and the winners will be defined by scores only.

What do you think??

Tht will b awesome. Now if we are goning to do that we should we given 2 -3 weeks (1 week for creating the A.I, 1 week for refining it)

I'd give 2 weeks, more time is useless.

a custom JASS AI in two weeks... lol, thats a joke. This isnt a Spell Contest, you cant just use loads of good systems and base it off something existing like in their. It would take a lot of debugging and time just to craete a working ai that does basic tasks correctly.. .at least for me....

NOOO!!!

2 AIs done in normal AI editor, don't worry.

JASS AI would be done for the next next AI tournament (the third one hopefully), and obviously 2 weeks won't be enough to finish them.

good, when someone said JASS AI and you said 2 weeks, I nearly wet myself,

hmmm two ais... sounds... interesting. Now the strategy gets really interesting. This is where we separate the rushers from the strategists!

Wouldn't just having the actually winning team win be a better idea?
