I've entered a bot in the Nov 2011 contest, but my primary goal is to get community members to take it out for a spin, play with the parameters, and improve the model.
I think the bot thread is for the contest, and the bot as is.
Please use this thread if you have alot of questions or are modifying code or wish to share results with different parameters. It has a good number of parameters to test.
The bot and its characteristics can be found here:
Thanks in advance for your participation. -Patrick
