in reply to Contest Ideas Quest
A weekly or biweekly game, to be played by the submitted programs. These games could be suggested and voted upon by any interested party.
How will entries be submitted?
Entries can be mailed to a single person, or an entry handling script, or can be posted to a non-publically viewable node.
How will the entries be scored?
Entrants get a number of XP based on the number of opponents defeated, with bonus XP for making it to the semi-finals, finals, or winning.
Who will score the entries?
Since this is a fairly straightforward method of calculating a winner, it could be automated with a game-running script.
When/will submissions be viewable by everyone?
The submissions will be viewable by everyone the day after the deadline for entry, allowing competitors to discuss various strategies, and predict the winners before the resolution of the game.
