MAPC Organisation & Guidelines Contest - Each team plays one match of 3 simulations against each other team. - Winning a simulation awards 3 points. A draw results in 1 point for each team. - The team with the most points wins the tournament. - If 2 or more teams are tied for a place, they will share the same placement. - The “web monitor” will not be available during the matches (only a version with very basic information). - The agents may be modified during the tournament. Changes should be documented and submitted to the organisers after the contest to support the contest analysis. - If there is any hardware or software failure on the part of the contest organisation, we may decide to reschedule and replay the affected match (depending on severity). Technical - The server might provide additional information (beyond what agents receive in their messages) to (human) spectators. Agents may not get access to this information. - Agents may reconnect at any time to their current simulation. - Any programming language, framework, etc. may be used to create agents. Scenario - A simulation is won by the team with the most points. - If both teams are tied, the simulation ends in a draw. Last edited: 15.8.2019 - 14:05
